Ingredients
2 sheets store-bought all-butter puff pastry, thawed but cold
1/2 cup Nutella (hazelnut cocoa spread)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted (for brushing the tin)
Optional: 2 tablespoons crushed toasted hazelnuts
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and liberally grease a standard muffin tin with melted butter.
Step 2: On a lightly floured surface, roll out one sheet of puff pastry into a large rectangle, roughly 10×12 inches.
Step 3: Spread half of the Nutella in a thin, even layer across the pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border at the edges.
Step 4: Starting from the long edge, roll the pastry into a tight log. Repeat the process with the second sheet of pastry and the remaining Nutella.
Step 5: Using a sharp knife, cut each log in half crosswise, then slice each half lengthways to expose the internal layers of dough and Nutella.
Step 6: With the cut side facing outwards, roll each strip into a spiral shape (like a rose) and tuck the end underneath. Place each coil into the prepared muffin tin.
Step 7: Bake for 22-25 minutes until the cruffins have risen significantly and are deep golden brown. While baking, mix the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Step 8: Remove from the oven, let cool for 5 minutes, then carefully remove from the tin and toss in the cinnamon-sugar mixture while still warm.
Notes
Ensure the puff pastry stays cold during the rolling process. if it gets too soft, pop it in the fridge for 10 minutes before cutting.
