Nutella Pastry Rolls – Puff pastry dough is filled with Nutella hazelnut spread and twisted into a beautiful pastry roll before being baked and drizzled with cinnamon icing.

With Halloween behind us, the season of eating and baking can truly begin! I love making soups, toasts, and baked goods during these cooler months. So get excited for some comforting foods to be shared with you soon!

For today’s recipe, we will focus on the baked goods, specifically puff pastry. I made these Nutella Pastry Rolls using frozen puff pastry and Nutella hazelnut spread. That’s it! Well, I did also add a cinnamon icing on top, but the rolls themselves just have those two ingredients.

Without further ado, here are my Nutella Pastry Rolls!

Tips & Tricks

  1. Use fresh Nutella. A freshly-opened jar of Nutella is much softer in texture and easier to spread. I have tried using an older jar before and almost tore my dough trying to spread it!
  2. Must serve warm! I have eaten these rolls room temperature and they just aren’t the same. The butter in the dough gets firm, as does the Nutella. Just pop them in the microwave for 10 seconds to warm them back up and make them gooey and rich inside.
  3. Twist and twist. The more you twist the strips of dough, the tighter the dough will get and it will eventually form a log. If the strip looks like a corkscrew, you need to keep twisting!

    These Nutella Pastry Rolls look absolutely delicious! I love how you kept it simple with just puff pastry and Nutella, plus that cinnamon icing sounds like the perfect finishing touch. It reminds me of the cozy baking sessions I have during the fall, where I often experiment with sweet treats. Speaking of which, I recently stumbled upon the GWYF Guide, which has some great tips for making the most of seasonal ingredients. Thanks for sharing this delightful recipe; I can’t wait to give it a try!

    combining flaky pastry with rich, creamy Nutella for the perfect indulgence. They are quick to make and ideal for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. Just like celebrity-networths.com shares sweet details about famous personalities, these rolls bring a touch of sweetness to everyday moments.

    My husband and son are die hard nutella lovers so I had to make these pastries for them. They were so happy and devoured half of them on their own (which made me very UNhappy).

Double Chocolate Biscotti – Chocolate cookies ar Double Chocolate Biscotti – Chocolate cookies are loaded with chocolate chips and baked twice to make them extra crispy and perfect for dunking into your favorite hot beverage.

Biscotti is the dessert I never knew I needed. I discovered them in college when I craved a snack while studying for finals. I bought a biscotti at the library coffee shop and dunked it in my coffee. The cookie that I thought was too crunchy suddenly turn soft and chewy. Yum!

Those memories inspired me to make my own biscotti. First, I made these gingerbread biscotti. And then I made this pistachio version. Now, I’m recreating the biscotti I first had many years ago – Double Chocolate Biscotti.

Rosemary Cheese Straws – The Southern cheese str Rosemary Cheese Straws – The Southern cheese straw is flavored with fresh rosemary to give them a sophisticated feel.

I am a snacker, through and through. Before meeting my husband and living together, my meals were not planned out and mostly consisted of a lot of small snacks throughout the day. 

Over time, I learned it’s very hard to coordinate meals and get togethers with others when I’m not super hungry so I learned to adapt. But in my core, I am still a snack lover!

Today’s recipe is my newest snack obsession – Rosemary Cheese Straws

Split Buns with Cream and Jam – soft, enriched y Split Buns with Cream and Jam – soft, enriched yeast buns split and filled with fresh whipped cream and raspberry jam, then dusted with powdered sugar!

Once again, The Great British Baking Show has led me to a new treat I'd never heard of but was completely entranced by! Devonshire split buns are a popular British treat made with soft baked buns filled with cream and jam, and honestly? I'm obsessed! 

What I love about these buns is how they feel like eating a sweet sandwich – imagine a jam sandwich but in a long bun with whipped cream! Doesn't that make you drool?

The great news is they're super easy to make! With a simple enriched dough recipe and store-bought jam, you can have these buns ready in just a couple of hours! The dough took me some time to develop because I wanted them soft like hot dog buns (but obviously sweeter!), not dense and heavy!

Pro tip: DO NOT slice all the way through! Leave the bottom connected so the buns hold the filling well! Use piping bags with tips to fill neatly – it makes them look bakery-quality!

Perfect for breakfast, dessert, holiday gatherings, brunch, or anytime you want a soft, indulgent treat!

Fig & Goat Cheese Crostini – crispy baguette sli Fig & Goat Cheese Crostini – crispy baguette slices rubbed with fresh garlic, spread with rosemary honey goat cheese, and topped with fig preserves! 

This particular crostini was born when I had leftover fig preserves to use up! And let me tell you – this combination is INCREDIBLE! Every single bite is perfectly balanced – crispy, tangy, sweet, spicy, and creamy all at once! My guests absolutely cannot stop at just one!

The magic is in the rosemary honey goat cheese spread – that's where all the flavor comes from! The fresh rosemary pairs SO beautifully with the sweet fig preserves!
Pro tip: Do NOT assemble these until you're ready to serve! 

The bread will get soggy if you make them ahead! BUT you can toast the bread and make the goat cheese spread ahead of time for quick assembly!

Perfect for holiday parties, entertaining guests, or anytime you need an impressive appetizer that's seriously easy to make! 🎉
