How to Make Nutella Swirl Ring

  1. Activate yeast: In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup (120ml) warm water, 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Add 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour and 1/4 cup (50g) unsalted butter, softened. Mix on medium speed with an electric mixer for 4 minutes.
  3. Add remaining flour: Gradually add the remaining 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour, mixing for an additional 2 minutes until a soft dough forms.
  4. First rise: Grease a large bowl with non-stick cooking spray. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Preheat oven & prepare baking sheet: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Shape the dough: Gently punch down the risen dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a 12x16 inch rectangle.
  7. Spread Nutella: Spread warmed Nutella evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
  8. Roll and form the ring: Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Bring the ends together to form a ring, pinching them to seal. Brush the seam with a little water to help adhere.
  9. Slice the ring: Using a sharp knife sprayed with non-stick cooking spray, carefully cut the ring into 12 individual buns, cutting about ¾ of the way through to keep them connected. Gently separate the buns slightly, so they resemble dominoes.
  10. Egg wash & sugar: Brush the ring with 2 tablespoons of water and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
  11. Bake: Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  12. Cool & serve: Let the Nutella Swirl Ring cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy!
