Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Store-bought croissants
- 100 grams Nutella
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 20 grams Chopped hazelnuts (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice each croissant horizontally, leaving one edge uncut, so the croissant opens like a book.
3. Spread about 1-2 tablespoons of Nutella evenly on the inside of each croissant. Use more Nutella if desired for a richer flavor.
4. Close the croissants and gently press to secure.
5. Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave or small saucepan, and brush it lightly over the tops of the croissants.
6. Place the croissants on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until the croissants are warm and slightly crisped on the outside.
8. Remove the croissants from the oven and allow them to cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
9. Dust the tops with powdered sugar using a fine mesh sieve, and sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts, if desired, for added texture and flavor.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, gooey Croissant Nutella!
