Are you a Nutella fan? Well, who isn’t? My son eats Nutella out of the jar with a spoon. This is not a problem for me because I would very happily join him. But, Ziv? Oh my god. Noooo. He freaks out.

He always says to me. ‘That is way too much sugar to give the kids. We must teach our kids the right eating habits.” Ah, well, first, this mama needs to learn to stay away from Nutella, and only then can she consider teaching her kids to do the same. Know what I mean?

Honestly, though, aren’t we allowed to have a few vices? I mean I try as much as I can to cook healthy but this is Nutella. I love adding it to my ice creams, pastries, brownies, etc. Have you ever eaten a bowl of vanilla ice cream and topped it with Nutella? It was one of my favorites when we were at the university. Absolute heaven. Unlike today,  back then, my weight was not an issue.

About these pastries

These Nutella puff pastries are the simplest things to make for a quick snack. Especially when you have kids over on play dates and need to make something quick. My Aadi is just six now, so he often has friends coming over, and you know, kids are always hungry, and they all love Nutella.
Caution – Always check with the parents to see if they are okay with you feeding their kids Nutella. Even if the kid is not nut allergic, some parents think it’s too much sugar.

You can use a ready-to-roll store-bought puff pastry or a batch of homemade puff pastry. Puff pastry is very versatile, and we used it when making the maple, strawberry, and vanilla napoleons as well.

Step-by-step instructions

• Preheat the oven to 190 °C / 380°F.
• Line the baking tray with parchment for easy cleanup.
• Open the puff pastry sheet out over a lightly floured surface to prevent sticking.
• Cut the puff pastry in half so you have two equal squares – 2 squares.
• Now cut each square in half and half again – 4 squares.
• Making it a total of 8 squares.
• Place the squares on the parchment-lined baking tray.
• Add a heaping tablespoon of Nutella in the center of each square.
• Brush the edges with water – very lightly dab with water.
• Fold one side over the other – this will give you a triangle.
• Make sure the edges are sealed well so the Nutella stays in when baking.
• Once all the squares are filled and sealed.
• Bake in a preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes.
• Once baked, cool on a cooling rack.
• Caution – The Nutella inside the pastry is really HOT and bubbling. No matter how tempted you are, do not attempt to bite into them, and definitely do not let the kids touch the hot pastry.
• Enjoy!
