Crazy Dough Braided Nutella Bread
Crazy Dough Braided Nutella Bread is a showstopper that combines soft, pillowy dough with rich, velvety Nutella in every bite. With just 2 hours of prep and 25 minutes of baking, this treat is surprisingly simple to make yet feels indulgent and special.
Ingredients
- 1 batch Crazy Dough
- 1/2 cup Nutella (5oz/150g)
Instructions
- Once your Crazy Dough has proofed for the first time (about 1 hour) transfer to a lightly floured surface.
- Cut the dough in half to create 2 loaves. Roll using a rolling pin to 16 x 9 inch rectangle.
- Using a spatula or butter knife spread the Nutella across the rectangle in an even thin layer, about 1 inch away from the edge of the dough. You don't want too much Nutella as it can muddy when you cut your bread.
- Using your fingertips gently roll the dough into a tight log.
- Once the dough had been rolled into a log carefully slice down the center of the log using a serrated knife.
- Now that you're left with 2 parts of dough start at the top pinching the 2 parts together, then twisting them around each other until you get to the bottom. Re-pinch pinch the bottom and top of the twisted log together to secure the loaf.
- Grease a loaf tin with vegetable oil and carefully lift your braided loaf into the center of the tin.
- Cover with plastic wrap and a tea towel and allow to proof for a second time, 45 minutes to an hour.
- Pre-heat your oven to 375oF (190oC). Uncover your braided loaf (it should be about double in size) and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Allow to cool in the tin for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving, enjoy!
