3 Ingredients Recipe: Nutella Croissants
Easy Nutella Croisaants with Just 3 Ingredients
Do you like Nutella? Well then, you are going to simply LOVE these Nutella Croissants! The crisp pastry hides the delicious Nutella center, and you will just find it hard to stop at just one – I dare you to try!
Best of all, with only three ingredients and 30 minutes in the kitchen (cooking time included) you will impatiently be waiting for these little beauties to be cool enough to eat!
These Nutella Croissants are the ideal treat for birthday parties, morning tea, a special dessert or simply just because!!
You will need:
3 sheets of frozen puff pastry
1 egg – lightly beaten
1 cup of Nutella
Let’s put it together:
Preheat your oven to 200 degrees and cover two baking trays with baking paper.
Lightly whisk the egg and set aside until needed.
Place one piece of puff pastry which has slightly thawed on the kitchen bench. Cut in half lengthways and then cut each half diagonally, so that you end up with four rectangles per sheet of pastry. Continue to cut each sheet of pastry until you have 12 rectangles.
Brush the two long edges with the beaten egg, and place a teaspoon of Nutella in the middle of the base of the triangle.
Beginning at the short end (the one with the Nutella) roll the pastry up and gently bend the centre of the rolled pastry to give it a curved ‘croissant’ shape.
Continue until all rectangles have been rolled and bent, then place on a baking tray and brush with the beaten egg.
Bake for 12 – 15 minutes or until golden.
These delicious little parcels are great on their own or enjoy served warm with a scoop of ice cream!
