    I love bananas, they're healthy, sweet and a good source of potassium. What I don't like is how quickly they go bad. I find myself freezing them or baking them much faster than I can eat them. You can only make so many banana nut muffins or banana protein shakes before you become completely sick of them. So I changed it up with these banana bread Nutella whoopie pies.

    I started playing around in the kitchen and I decided to mix banana and Nutella, because duh. Then, I got tired of muffins and decided to try making whoopie pies, because why the hell not?!  Thus creating banana bread Nutella whoopie pies. 

    Are whoopie pies cakes or cookies?

    These banana bread Nutella whoopie pies are made using an altered banana bread recipe. Whoopie pies are like small, hand-held cake sandwiches. They may be shaped like cookies, but they're definitely cakes.

    What if you don't like Nutella?

    Although It's hard to imagine someone not liking Nutella, I know it happens. This recipe would also be great with peanut butter or biscoff spread instead. Simply swap out the the Nutella in the recipe for your spread of choice. 

    How to store your whoopie pies?

    I recommend storing your banana bread Nutella whoopie pies in an airtight container for up to 3 days in your refrigerator.

    Ingredients

    • 1 Cup of all-purpose flour
    • ¾ Teaspoon of baking powder
    • ¼ Teaspoon of baking soda
    • ¼ Teaspoon of salt
    • ¼ Cup of room temperature butter
    • ¼ Cup of brown sugar
    • ¼ Cup of white granulated sugar
    • 1 Large egg
    • ¼ Teaspoon of vanilla extract
    • 1 Large over-ripe banana
    • 1 Tablespoon of milk
    • ½ Tablespoon of lemon/lime juice
    • ¼ Cup of Nutella separated and more for the filling.
    • Toasted and candied almonds or nuts of your choice for garnish

    Instructions

    • Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
    • In a medium sized bowl, combine all of your dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt) and set aside. In another medium sized bowl, combine butter and sugar. Add egg and beat well. Next, add your banana, milk, vanilla extract and lemon juice. Mix until well combined and there are very little banana lumps left.
    • Stir in dry ingredients until well incorporated.
    • Add the Nutella one tablespoon at a time. You should have four dollops of Nutella on your batter. using a kitchen spatula, fold the batter 3 times. Anything more than three times will begin to mix the nutella into the batter and get rid of the swirls.
    • Scoop the batter using an ice cream scoop onto the parchment paper lined cookie sheets. Leave 1 ½ - 2 inches between each scoop. Bake for 12-15 minutes until you are able to stab them with a toothpick and it comes out clean.
    • Once removed from the oven, let them cool completed before you start assembling your whoopie pies. This recipe will make about 8 whoopie pies. On the bottom side of one of the cookie, slather on as much Nutella as your little heart desires. Add some chopped/candied nuts over the top of the Nutella for some added crunch. Place another cookie on top and place back onto the parchment. Continue the process until you've assembled all the whoopie pies.
    • If you'd like to harden them up a bit, you can place them in the fridge for a couple of minutes or eat them as is. Store them in an air-tight container for up to three days.

    Notes

    This recipe would also be great with peanut butter or biscoff spread instead of Nutella. Simply swap out the the nutella in the recipe for your spread of choice. 
    Want smaller whoopie pies? scoop the batter out using a tablespoon and bake for 7-9 minutes instead

    My name is Cari and I'm the person behind FatgirlHedonist.com. I'm born and raised in Miami (Hialeah if you'd like specifics) and proud Latina. I'm a single mom to a very curious toddler. I completed a culinary program in high school that made my love of food blossom, but my career went in a very different direction. No matter what turns my life has taken, cooking, baking and eating have always been three of my favorite activities. I'm lucky enough that I can have this blog as an outlet for those three passions.
