INGREDIENTS 

  • 370 gms of maida ( 3 cups) 

  • 40 gms (2 tbsp) sugar 

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 75 gms(⅓ cup) butter softened

  • 250ml(1cup) warm milk 

  • 7 gms ( 2 tsp) instant yeast 

  • Nutella 

INSTRUCTIONS

  • in a bowl add milk, yeast and sugar. Give a good mix 

  • Add butter 

  • Add flour, salt ( little at a time)  and combine 

  • Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead the dough for around 15 minutes until it’s soft and elastic 

  • Transfer the dough ball to a greased bowl for first proofing. Add a little oil to the surface of the dough ball too 

  • Leave for 1.5-2 hrs or until it doubles in size

Punch down the dough to de gas and divide into 4 equal portions 

  • Keep them covered 

  • Roll out one portion into a circle with a 10-inch diameter 

  • I’ve used a 10-inch lid to cut out the perfect circle shape

Transfer this to a baking tray with butter paper 

  • Spear Nutella over this circle leaving an inch of gap around the edges

Now roll out the other dough ball in the same manner and place it over the first 

  • Smear Nutella in the same manner 

  • Repeat the same for the third dough ball 

  • Roll out the last dough ball and place it over the third circle 

  • Take a cookie cutter(2.5-inch diameter) and make an indentation in the centre. This is the centre of the star-shaped bread 

  • Now divide the circle into 16 parts making skits with a knife making sure the knife goes through all the layers

Next twist the adjacent 2 slits outwards

Twist outwards a second time and pinch the ends to seal and to create the tapered effect

Cover with a cloth and allow to proof for the second time for around 30-40 minutes 

  • Preheat oven to 200c 

  • After second proofing if u find the bread has lost some of its shape , then seal the edges again and readjust 

  • Brush with little milk and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and baked through

Apply some butter once baked 

  • That’s it, your easy Nutella Tear and Share is ready 

  • Enjoy with coffee

VARIATIONS TO TRY with the stuffing 

  • Jam of your choice 

  • Creamy cheese filling 

  • Pesto 

  • Pizza toppings

  • Cinnamon sugar 

  • Chai spice 

  • Garlic and cheese 

  • Spinach and cheese
