Ingredients

Nutella Crumble Cake

  • 3 cups cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup cup sugar
  • 7 tbsps tbsps butter
  • 2 eggs (medium, whole)
  • 0.5 oz oz baking powder
  • 14 oz oz Nutella®
  • 1 oz oz dark chocolate chips (or hazelnut pieces, or almonds)

Tools

  • Bowl
  • Ladle
  • Baking Pans
  • Parchment paper

Steps

  • In a bowl, pour the flour, sugar, and baking powder and mix.

  • Add two medium whole eggs and mix with a fork or ladle.

  • After obtaining a floury mixture, add the soft butter in pieces.

  • Incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients with your hands until you get a crumbly dough.

  • Please, DO NOT compact, the mixture should remain floury.

  • Line a baking pan with parchment paper, preferably with a springform (suitable sizes 8-9-10-11 inches).

  • On the bottom, arrange the obtained crumbs, leaving a third aside for the topping.

  • Another recommendation: DO NOT press the crumbs on the bottom, leave them as they are.

  • Fill with Nutella (leaving the perimeter free) and spread with the back of a spoon.

  • At this point, you can decide to cover the ENTIRE surface with the leftover crumbs.

  • Or, like I did, leave a small portion uncovered to show the filling.

  • In this last case, you can use any cookie cutter.

  • Gently place the cutter at the center of the crumble, without pressing.

  • Cover the cutter hole with a piece of parchment paper.

  • Take the reserved crumbs and cover the entire surface of the crumble.

  • Decorate with a generous handful of chocolate chips (you can also skip them).

  • If you prefer, you can replace the chocolate chips with hazelnut pieces or almond flakes.

  • Remove the cutter placed at the center and your crumble is ready!

  • Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 30-35 minutes.

  • Cover the surface to prevent it from darkening too much. In the last 5 minutes, remove the parchment paper to let it color.

  • Ventilated mode is also fine. Check the cooking about 5 minutes earlier.

  • Your Nutella crumble cake is ready to be enjoyed!

  • Remove from the oven, let it cool completely on a wire rack, and then serve.

  • I hope you enjoyed this recipe! Come back to visit me soon!
