Crispy and crumbly shortcrust pastry with a delicious and irresistible filling… this is the recipe for the Nutella Tart, cooked in a Air Fryer.
The Nutella Tart is certainly one of the most favorite and loved snacks by kids… and not only… in our family, we all go crazy for it! A simple recipe, but with some pitfalls during cooking: Nutella dries out and loses its original good and creamy consistency. A mistake I used to make too before discovering this trick. Today, with this recipe, I will explain how to achieve a compact crust that does not collapse during cooking and a soft, velvety cream, just like it came out of the jar.
I recommend preparing the crust in advance because it requires double resting: refrigerator and freezer… So what are we waiting for??!! Let’s go prepare this delicious Nutella Tart in a Air Fryer. I also leave you the oven cooking instructions in the dedicated section at the end of the recipe.

Steps
How to Prepare the Tart
In a bowl, work all the ingredients with your hands, except for the butter, to obtain a sandy mixture.
Add the butter cut into pieces and quickly mix everything until you get a smooth and homogeneous dough
Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and leave it to rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator
After resting, take 3/4 of the crust and roll it out between two lightly floured sheets of parchment paper using a rolling pin
Transfer the crust to a buttered and floured pan and trim the excess dough with a knife
Fill with Nutella
Use the remaining crust to create strips for decoration. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and place in the freezer for 1 hour before baking. This is the trick to prevent Nutella from drying out
Bake at 338°F for 20 minutes, lower to 320°F, and continue for 10 minutes
The crust should be golden
Here it is ready with Nutella that has not lost its creamy consistency
Let it cool, dust with powdered sugar, and the snack is ready!
