Even though I have been enjoying the banana upside-down cake all week, I was craving more of that caramelized banana-y goodness. The chocolate and banana flavour combo in the cake reminded me of an oldie but a favorite, the nutella and banana sandwich and with that thought, I had to try the caramelized banana version! This little treat is quick and easy to whip up and it is so addictively good! Caramelizing the bananas makes them sweeter and more intense and the fact that they are still warm means that they melt right into the nutella making it even better.

Looks so good. I think I must be the only person on the planet who has never tasted Nutella! Will have to buy some.
I don't think I've ever had caramelized bananas…sounds great with the nutella!
Kevin! I am a Nutella fan and this looks like something I would really enjoy. Lovely, just lovely. Thanks for sharing. :p
H.O.L.Y. D.A.N.G! That looks so good.
This looks so good! Nutella is one of my favorite things.
wow…that looks just incredibly tasty….ooey gooey and delcious
GAGG!
The chef, Kevin, doesn't eat these things. Just puts them out there.!!! 🙂 For all the chicks who like sweets!!!! (doesn't make it bad, just . . .)
Would make a great treat for kids (and adults)!
oh, my, goodness, I just died and went to heaven! I love bananas and nutella and have often made this sandwich! but I have never caramelized my bananas! this just looks too good… I have to go to the store and get some bananas! 🙂
This sandwich is both my worst nightmare and my dream come true. Very dangerously delicious.
Ohh I love nutella! yumm.
double, triple yum.
Ok. I quit.
Risoto and wrap were great!
My gosh, I just woke up and saw this!! My fav Nutella is in there. Wish I can have some for breakfast now.
Okay, my diet definitely starts…TOMORROW!
Woah! Why didn't Elvis try this? 😛
I am a big nutella fan and this is similar to my favourite quickie breakfast sandwich: two slices of thick whole wheat toast, one spread with nutella, the other with crunchy peanut butter, slices of banana in between. Perfect dose of fibre and energy!
WOW…This is so over the top wonderful looking. My husband and I would gobble this up in a flash.
Hi KEvin,
You changed the header I can see – and the whole front page design – refreshing 🙂
This sandwich definitely satisfy any man s sugar cravings 🙂
Nutella is one of my weaknesses and I've tried fresh bananas with it. I have to try this with the caramelized bananas….

oh my goodness! I love nutella and banana sandwich..But caramelized? this just bring it to the next level!
Oh gosh! I've been seeing sooo many awesome Nutella recipes lately that I really need to get myself a jar of it! Caramelized bananas sounds like the best idea everrr!
Sues
This just made my Monday! Nutella and bananas are the best.
Wowsers!! Kevin, you had me laughing out loud at this one – in the best possible way! This is over the top outrageously delish. 🙂
Now this snack would take my breath away. Such a simple and delicious recipe.
This looks absolutely scrumptious! Bookmarked!
Waw,…Kevin!!
What a tasty sandwich!! So special too!
I had a banana this morning. I think I would have enjoyed it more in this. 🙂 Those caramelized bananas look unreal!
i just love this kevin…..what a great gourmet treat.
Oh yum. We are in sync…I just posted a banana/nutella recipe, too! http://www.stonerfood.net
Oh my goodness… I have a sweet spot for Nutella, and this looks absolutely amazing! Is it wrong to have this for breakfast?
Such a good idea to caramelize the banana! I've eaten dozens of banana/Nutella sandwiches/crepes in my day but never thought to do anything fancy with the banana. Definitely on my list of things to try!
100% happiness from a bite of that banana sandwich!
Looks like heaven on toast to me!!
Wow!! This look awesome!!
So Yum…
banana and choco are good combination
You always have the most creative ideas Kevin! Bananas foster with nutella sounds delicious and I am dreaming about the time I will try i out. Thank you for sharing!
Yum Yum and Yum! I've said it before but have to say it again, Nutella is amazing! We used to put it on toast as a kid all the time. Would make grilled nutella and jelly sandwiches. Insanely good and so bad!!! LOL

I made this…it was delicious! You come up with the best taste combinations!
this is absolutely glorious! i love it, definitely going to be making it again, and soon!
I just made this and it was incredible! I'm out of bread so I used a croissant, which probably made it even better. Anyway, thank you for the recipe. Great way to get rid of a banana going brown. I plan to make this dessert for many of my friends and family.
super easyyyyy….must try this recipe….banana and nutella are the most delicious duo…
That looks so disgusting.
Try also with strawberries delicious!! I will have to try this
I wish people would not comment unless they have actually made the recipe. Those of us wondering how your recipes taste end up having to scroll through all the “that looks delicious” and “I’ll have to try it” comments. It’s about how it tastes people! Not the pictures…
Just made these for the first time and they were pretty delicious! Still have to perfect my banana caramelizing skill. I think I had the heat up a little high and I’ll try covering the bananas in a pan to see what that does. It’s a simple recipe to make with nothing else needed. I already have a bunch of Nutella at home so this was a great use for it! I’d definitely make again!
