Nutella Balls Recipe : Irresistible Dessert

If you’re a Nutella lover, this Nutella Balls Recipe is about to become your new favorite treat!

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough (or puff pastry)
  • 1/2 cup (150g) Nutella
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

Roll out the crescent roll dough on a lightly floured surface. If using crescent dough, pinch the seams together to form a solid sheet. Cut the dough into 8 equal squares.

Step 2: Add the Nutella Filling

Place 1 teaspoon of Nutella in the center of each dough square. Be careful not to overfill, or the Nutella may leak out during cooking.

Step 3: Seal the Dough

Fold the edges of the dough over the Nutella and pinch them together to seal tightly. Roll each piece into a smooth ball shape, ensuring there are no open seams.

Step 4: Apply the Egg Wash

Brush the outside of each dough ball with beaten egg. This helps create a golden, crispy crust when cooked.

Step 5: Air Fry the Nutella Bombs

Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Place the Nutella balls in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching. Air fry for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.

Step 6: Coat in Cinnamon Sugar

While the Nutella bombs are still warm, brush them lightly with melted butter and roll them in a cinnamon-sugar mixture for extra flavor.

Step 7: Serve & Enjoy!

Let them cool slightly before serving (the Nutella will be hot!). Enjoy warm for the ultimate Air Fryer Nutella Crescent Rolls experience.

Notes

Seal the Dough Well – Prevents Nutella from leaking out during cooking.
Don’t Overfill – Use just 1 teaspoon per piece for the perfect balance.
Preheat the Air Fryer – Ensures even cooking and a crispy crust.
