Puff Pastry Nutella Twists
Indulge in these irresistible Puff Pastry Nutella Twists!
Equipment
- Baking sheet
Ingredients
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry thawed (approximately 17.3 oz package)
- 1 cup Nutella or chocolate hazelnut spread
- 1 large egg for egg wash
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar for sprinkling
- Optional: 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts for added crunch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface, gently rolling them to even out the thickness to about 1/8 inch.
- Spread 1/2 cup of Nutella evenly over each pastry sheet, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
- Cut the pastry sheets into 1-inch wide strips using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
- Twist each strip in opposite directions to form spirals.
- Place the twists on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between them.
- Brush each twist with the egg wash (1 beaten egg + 1 tbsp water) and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.
- Let cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
Notes
- For a more professional look, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt or chopped hazelnuts before baking.
- These can be made ahead and frozen! Freeze the unbaked twists on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag and bake directly from frozen when ready (add a few extra minutes to baking time).
- Customize your twists by adding banana slices, berries, or even peanut butter for unique flavor combinations.
- Store cooled twists in an airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or up to 5 days in the fridge.
