Braided Nutella Bread is a simple home made bread with the goodness of nutella in every bite. Here is how to make this delicious Braided Nutella Bread .
Braided Nutella Bread is nice to munch on with Adrak Wali during the supper. Bread baking has always been a joy for me. The smell of freshly baked bread wafting from the oven is enough to give me a high.
This Nutella Bread has been on my to-do list for the longest time and while I was going through my Pinterest page, it again popped in front of me shouting to be noticed and put into action. I used my favourite basic recipe to make this bread and the addition of Nutella was the best choice that I made. Here is how to make this Braided Nutella Bread.
I am yet to know someone who doesn’t like eating Nutella. My son finishes off the entire jar of Nutella as soon I bring it home. So, I thought what better way to hide it from him and making up a recipe with it instead, eh? Preparing Braided Nutella Bread at home thus, had many motivations.
Having said that, you could wisely use Nutella and make something innovative out of it such as Braided Nutella Bread or Olive Oil Banana Bread with Nutella Swirls. So, get going, roll up your sleeves and read its recipe:
