Three-Ingredient Nutella Doughnuts

And so my Nutella obsession continues!

Chris and I stopped by Crate and Barrel while trying to kill some time before dinner the other weekend (is it just us or do you find yourselves getting hungry at 4pm on the weekends?), and I came across some cute little doughnut pans. The person that created these pans needs to be commended. Being able to bake doughnuts instead of frying them and still creating that same, delicious doughnut texture? My waistline thanks you.

They are still doughnuts regardless, but knowing that you aren't soaking these in a pot of oil to cook them just makes you feel a little better, doesn't it? Using only three ingredients doesn't hurt either. Who cares that one of them is Nutella. These are super simple and you get a rush of Nutella as soon as you bite into them. Enjoy these while you can...they'll be gobbled up in no time!

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup Nutella (plus more for glazing)
• 1 egg and 1 egg yolk
• 6 tbsp. all purpose flour
• Hazelnuts for garnish, optional

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray doughnut pan with non stick cooking spray and set aside.

In small bowl, combine Nutella, egg, egg yolk and flour until smooth batter forms. Spoon evenly into pans and spread batter around to fill cavities evenly.

Bake 8-10 minutes or until thoroughly cooked. Remove from oven and cool 10 minutes before removing from pans. Cool completely. Spread more Nutella over tops of doughnuts and garnish with chopped hazelnuts, if desired. Serve.
