Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies

This is my new obsession! I apparently have now needed to be enjoyed with a glass of milk. And that just sets this whole thing off.

Moist. Fudgy-licious. Dense. And just oh so good. These are my new favourite Blondies!

I know I’m not the only one that stands over the kitchen sink smearing peanut butter on one side of a banana, and then smear nutella on the other side, calling it a healthy snack because it’s a banana? The PB and Nutella somehow don’t count (in my head anyway).

Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies Ok. Anything with warm and melty-y Nutella coming out of it is a good thing — right?

I don’t know if you guys used to do this…but wayyyy back and once upon a time when I was a kid, I used to load sandwiches. With everything.

First, I’d spread nutella (mmmm-nutellaaaa) on a slice of bread. THEN I’d spread peanut putter over the nutella, and kinda play with the swirls it would make (yes, I play with my food: sometimes). And then. Just for good measure. I’d throw on some jam. Strawberry Jam. Because I figured, I love strawberries dipped in chocolate, and then smeared in peanut butter. Have I lost you yet? Good. Don’t go. Hear me out. (I feel like I’m at confession).

No Joke. I see fireworks. I feel fireworks. I love fireworks. Food fireworks.

To make this long story short, I was craving my Banana Bread Blondies. But then again…I wanted my Reese’s peanut buttery ones.

But (obviously) I couldn’t make up my mind WHICH ones I wanted! I know! The dilemma.

Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies Being that I never make the same thing more than twice, and I love experimenting and making stuff up as I go, ummm I guess I’m guilty?

Guilty of creating the best blondies I’ve ever had — in my life? Yep. I’ll go with that.

Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies Peanut Butter and Jam Nutella Banana Blondies When these beautiful fudge blondies came out of the oven, let me just say those smells and warm banana aromas filling my whole house had us all crowding around the kitchen bench. The kids begging me to cut into it yesterday. Well, who has patience when something so warm, sweet and fudge-y comes out of the oven? I know I don’t. I normally would’ve cut into this baby like my life depended on it…but that’s all in the past. (Ummmm not really, but just for today I’ll pretend).

Banana Bread Blondies… filled with peanut butter gooey-ness…swirled with strawberry jam AND nutella…just because I can. And you know what? I only got to enjoy one bar. Just ONE!

Instructions

Preheat oven 200C | 390F. Spray an 8x8-inch baking pan with cooking spray, wipe excess over with a paper towel and set aside.
Throw ALL ingredients (except the nutella and jam) into a food processor and blend until smooth (about 5 minutes, depending on your food processor)
Pour into a prepared pan and spoon jam and nutella evenly over batter.
With the back of a spatula of knife, swirl both spreads into the batter and over the top until the surface is covered.
Bake for approx 25 - 30 minutes (depending on your oven) until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out semi-clean. (The dirtier the toothpick, the fudgy-er the bars)
They are VERY moist when taken out, but they will set and firm as they cool! Don't over cook these - or they will become dry.
Once cooled, gently cut into 16 bars.
