Nutella Puff Pastry Twists are a fun pastry, perfect for breakfast or dessert. Easily made with puff pastry and ready in just 30 minutes.
The kids enjoy a fresh pastry and I have to agree that there is not much better than a warm fresh pastry with a mug of coffee in the garden on a summers day. We are missing our coffee shop treats and decided to make our own cheats puff pastry with Nutella chocolate twists.
These are so simple to make and cost about 20p a puff pastry twist, so it is also much cheaper to make your own than buying from a bakery just don’t forget the Nutella!!
Puff Pastry with Nutella
This recipe is essentially a quick and easy version of a chocolate-filled breakfast pastry. I think a puff pastry Nutella twist is a very appealing pastry, with the filling peeping out of the turns between the layers of golden pastry.
Kids will really enjoy making these as they can’t really go wrong and can do it independently. Plus they are ready to eat in under 20 minutes! We use ready to roll puff pastry for ease and it is a relatively mess-free recipe. This is why I call it cheats chocolate twists as we don’t make the puff pastry from scratch! These are ideal as a breakfast treat, an afternoon treat or even a delicious dessert!
The chocolate twists also freeze brilliantly, so you could bake a batch to freeze then in the morning place it frozen into the microwave for 20 seconds to thaw, then into the oven for 5 minutes to warm. The perfect fresh warm pastry for breakfast heaven!
