The Best bread with nutella recipe

I have to say, I’m a bit of a sucker for sweet and savory combinations, and this bread with Nutella recipe is one of my absolute favorites. The combination of the crunchy bread, the rich chocolate-hazelnut spread, and the gooey melted cheese is absolute perfection. I first discovered this recipe when I was on vacation in Italy with my family.

We were wandering through a local market, and I stumbled upon a small bakery that was selling freshly baked bread with Nutella drizzled on top. My kids were immediately hooked, and we ended up buying a few loaves to take back to our hotel room. Since then, I’ve made it at home countless times, and it’s always a hit with my family.

Whether we’re having it as an after-school snack or as part of a special treat for the kids, this bread with Nutella never fails to put big smiles on their faces. And let’s be real – who doesn’t love the idea of sneaking in some extra nutrition by serving it with sliced fruit or yogurt? But honestly, it’s perfect just on its own.

The best part about this recipe is how easy it is to make. All you need is some basic ingredients like flour, yeast, sugar, salt, butter or oil, water, and of course – Nutella! It’s a great way to get your kids involved in the kitchen too – they love helping me mix the dough and spreading the Nutella on top once it’s done baking.

This recipe is also incredibly versatile – you can serve it as a snack or dessert for any occasion. We’ve even had it at family gatherings and parties – everyone loves it! And if you’re worried about the nutritional value of all that Nutella, don’t be – just use a little less than the recipe calls for and serve it with some fresh fruit or yogurt to balance things out.

Trust me – this bread with Nutella is worth every bite.

🥘Ingredients

For the Dough

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk, warmed to 110°F
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Filling and Topping

1/2 cup Nutella, at room temperature
1 tablespoon milk (for brushing)

👨‍🍳Directions

1In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
2Add the warmed milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
3Stir until a sticky batter forms, about 2 minutes.
4Gradually add the remaining 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.
5Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
6If using a stand mixer, knead with the dough hook on medium speed for 5 to 7 minutes.
7Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.
5 hours until doubled in size.
8The dough should spring back slowly when pressed with a finger.
9Punch down the dough and turn it onto a lightly floured surface.
10Roll it into a 10×14 inch rectangle.
11Spread the Nutella evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border on all sides.
12Starting from a long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log.
13Pinch the seam to seal.
14Place the log seam-side down in a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.
15Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the dough reaches the top of the pan.
16Preheat the oven to 350°F.
17Brush the top of the risen loaf with milk.
18Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
19If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil after 20 minutes.
20Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
21The internal temperature should reach 190°F for a fully baked loaf.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Nutella Swirl Bread

Q: What type of bread should I use for this recipe?

For this recipe, I recommend using a crusty bread that has some heft to it but still yields easily when pressed with your finger.

Q: Can I use any type of chocolate spread instead of Nutella?

No – while other chocolate spreads can work in a pinch, there’s just something special about the combination of hazelnuts and chocolate that makes Nutella so unique.

Q: How long does the dough need to rise?

The dough should rise for about an hour in total – either in one long rise or divided into two shorter rises separated by an hour.

Q: Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

You can prepare the dough ahead of time but you’ll want to let it rise before baking – otherwise you’ll end up with a dense rather than light loaf.

Q: What temperature should I bake the bread at?

Bake at 375°F (190°C) until golden brown.
