When I read that nutella tartine was one of this month’s recipes, I was pretty excited. The chocolate-hazelnut spread has long been a staple in our house, typically used as a dip with sliced apples or pears or swirled in quick breads.
I used challah instead of brioche, and cinnamon butter. This took no time at all to make, so I understand why this would be a common snack like Dorie mentions in the cookbook. My two favorite parts were the hint of cinnamon and the crunch of the toasted hazelnuts.
I will have to try using up remaining parts of bread loaves in this manner. I am particularly interested in trying it with strawberries once they are in season… But for now, a midnight snack awaits….
Midnight snack – yum. That sounds very Nigella of you
I am sure strawberries will be a great addition as well!
I do have to say that this was one of the quickest items we’ve done, and I felt a bit like I was making a sandwich for someone’s lunch box. Glad you enjoyed it!
This sure was quick. I didn’t like it that much, but there’s always next week’s recipe.
Love the bread close up! I’m enjoying the photos and living vicariously. (gosh I hope that’s even close to being spelled right.)
