Nutella crêpes is a popular variation of a sweet crêpe that is generously spread with Nutella, a hazelnut cocoa spread. This indulgent treat combines the soft, warm texture of a freshly made crêpe with the rich, creamy flavor of Nutella, making it a favorite among both children and adults.
A basic crêpe batter made with flour, eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, and sometimes a little sugar and vanilla for added sweetness is cooked on a flat griddle or in a crêpe pan to create a thin pancake. Once the crêpe is cooked to a light golden brown and is still hot, a generous amount of Nutella is spread over one-half or the entire surface of the crêpe.
The crêpe is then folded in half and often folded again to create a triangular or a fan shape, making it easier to eat. Additional toppings might be added on top of the Nutella, such as sliced strawberries, bananas, chopped nuts, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for extra flavor and texture.
