Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 4 slices of thick bread (brioche, challah, or Texas toast)
- 4 tbsp Nutella (or more, to taste)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (or any milk alternative)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1 tbsp butter or oil, for frying
- Powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)
- Fresh fruit (e.g., strawberries, bananas, or raspberries), for serving
Instructions
- Spread Nutella generously on two slices of bread, then top with the other two slices to create Nutella sandwiches.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter or oil.
- Dip each Nutella sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let any excess drip off.
- Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the skillet and slice diagonally. Garnish with powdered sugar and serve with fresh fruit.
Notes
- Use thick-cut bread to prevent sogginess.
- For extra indulgence, drizzle with maple syrup or melted Nutella.
- Substitute Nutella with any chocolate hazelnut spread or peanut butter for a twist.
