METHOD
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C (conventional) or 180°C (fan oven).
-
Lightly grease a 12 hole mini loaf tin with a little butter.
-
Add the softened butter to a large bowl of a stand mixer and crack in the egg. Beat together until light and creamy, before adding the mashed banana and stirring in the apple juice.
-
Using a spatula, fold in the remaining ingredients, but reserve 5g of oats for the topping. Take care not to overmix as it makes the batter heavy.
-
Divide the mixture between the prepared moulds and bake for 25-30 minutes until light and fluffy. Place the remaining 5g of oats on a piece of tin foil and bake at the same time as the banana breads.
-
Remove the banana breads from the moulds and leave to cool on a wire rack. Leave the toasted oats to cool.

To serve
Drizzle each mini banana loaf with 15g Nutella® (1 heaped teaspoon per portion) and sprinkle with the toasted oats.
