1. Peel and slice the banana into thin, even rounds and set aside.
2. Take the 4 slices of bread and spread 1 tablespoon of Nutella evenly on one side of each slice.
3. Arrange the banana slices evenly over the Nutella on 2 of the bread slices, then place the other 2 slices of bread on top, Nutella side down, to form 2 sandwiches.
4. Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the outer sides of each sandwich (both the top and bottom).
5. Preheat a panini press, sandwich press, or a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
6. Place the sandwiches into the panini press or skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. If using a skillet, press down gently with a spatula while cooking for even browning.
7. Remove the sandwiches from the heat and let cool for 1-2 minutes.
8. Slice each panini in half diagonally, serve warm, and enjoy!
