What is in a Nutella Swirl Bread?
1. Dough
The dough is made of spelt flour. Although I haven’t tried it with white flour, I’m sure it would work. In addition to spelt flour, the dough requires a small amount of sugar, milk, yeast, salt and water. All together, these six ingredients create a delicious bread that is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside.
Nutella
The start of the recipe is Nutella. Honestly, is there anyone who doesn’t like Nutella? I used a dairy free Nutella alternative called Nuttiva. It is a hazelnut spread that tastes just like Nutella.
Nutella Swirl Bread
- 200 ml soy milk
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoon yeast
- 500 grams spelt flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- 200 ml water
- 4 tablespoon nutella
-
Add the milk and sugar into a small pot and heat until luke warm. Transfer the milk into a glass container and add the yeast. Cover with a plate and aset it aside. After 5 minutes the yeast should create a frothy layer.
-
In a large mixing bowl add the spelt flour and salt. Next add the milk mixture and water and stir.
-
Knead the dough on a floured surface. At first it will seem very sticky but that is ok. After about 5-10 minutes the dough should start to come together. If you find it’s too sticky add a bit more flour. But be careful not to add to much as it will take away from the texture of the bread.
-
Slightly the mixing bowl and place the dough inside. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and set it aside for at least 1.5 hours.
-
Place the dough on a floured surface and gently knead for about 30 seconds. Then using a rolling pin roll out the dough until it’s about 1cm in thickness.
-
Add the nutella on top of the dough and spread using a butter knife. Roll the dough up and cut all the way down the middle. Gently braid the dough.
-
Put the dough in a cake form lined with baking paper. Cover with a tea towel and allow it to rest for 30 minutes.
-
Pre-heat the oven to 160 C (about 15 minutes after the bread has been resting). Put the bread into the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
