How to Make Nutella Toast Pies
Step 1: Prep the Bread
Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread. Trim the crusts for a cleaner edge if desired.
Step 2: Add the Filling
Spoon 1 tablespoon of Nutella onto the center of each slice. If adding extras like bananas or strawberries, place a few slices on top of the Nutella.
Step 3: Seal the Edges
Fold the bread in half into a triangle or use a circular cutter to press and seal the edges. A fork works well for crimping the edges to ensure nothing oozes out during cooking.
Step 4: Toast to Perfection
Butter both sides lightly and place on a skillet over medium heat. Toast for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm!
Pro Tips
Use room temperature Nutella for easy spreading.
Press the edges firmly with a fork to prevent leaks.
For a crispy finish, use a panini press or air fryer.
