Nutella Pizza

By kayjayjohnson

Ingredients

• 1 lb Pizza Dough – you can make your own but you can cut the prep time in half – buy fresh Pizza Dough from the refrigerator section of your local supermarket or pizzeria.
• Chocolate Hazelnut spread, I prefer the Nutella brand.
• Fresh Fruit of choice – I generally use Banana’s, Strawberries, Raspberries, Blueberries
• Fresh Mint (optional)
• Confectioner’s Sugar
• Raspberry Sauce (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 450 degrees

Line a heavy large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly dust Pizza Dough with flower and roll out onto prepared baking sheet. Make little indentations in the dough by working it with your fingers. Brush the dough with a little melted butter, then bake until the crust is a light golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Remove from oven and spread desired amount of Hazelnut spread onto crust. Don’t go crazy, a nice even layer is enough, you don’t want it too thick!

Slice Banana’s and Strawberries spread evenly over pie and add berries as desired

You can add a couple of sprigs of fresh mint if you’d like, if not, no big deal

To finish it off you can either sprinkle a little Confectioner’s Sugar on top or drizzle a fruit glaze, my favorite is Raspberry, again, don’t go crazy, just a light drizzle.

Below is an easy recipe for a Raspberry Glaze, but if you’re not in the mood to make it from scratch you can find tons of different glazes in your local market.

RASPBERRY GLAZE RECIPE



2 cups Raspberries, fresh or frozen
2 tbsp. fresh Lemon Juice
6 tablespoons Sugar



Instructions

Puree the berries in a blender with the Lemon Juice. Slowly add sugar until blended. Strain through a fine strainer, pressing with a rubber spatula to release the juices and eliminate seeds.
