Croissants always serve as go-to desserts for curbing a decent appetite with a dose of sweetness. And croissants with nutella filled cavity can only be considered as cherry on the cake!

Recipe type: Breakfast
Makes: 8-10
Ingredients
• Nutella, 8-10 teaspoons
• Puff Pastry, 250 grams
• Egg/milk, for brushing
Method
Defrost puff pastry. Sprinkle some flour and roll it out on flat surface in the shape of a circle until it’s about a quarter of an inch thick. Cut it like you would cut a pizza using a pizza cutter. You should have about 8 triangles.
Put a teaspoonful of Nutella on the thicker part of the triangle and spread it with the back of the spoon. NOTE: Do not go overboard with Nutella. If you put it in excess, it will ooze out of the sides which although is not the worst thing, but it will make your croissants look messy.
To get that quintessential croissant shape, start rolling it towards pointy part. Pull both the ends towards each other to make a C-shape. Lift the pointy end and brush it with egg wash so that it sticks properly.
Brush the croissants with beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 15 mins or until the croissants turn nice and golden.
