Attention Nutella fanatics, this is for you! Saturday 5th Feb marks World Nutella Day and we've got you covered.

This Saturday, 5th February is officially World Nutella Day and marks the heavenly day when hazelnuts and chocolate collide.

This delicious brainchild of Nutella enthusiast and blogger Sara Rosso was created in 2007, and has since been celebrated by millions worldwide. 

This year, our very own Claire Holt (famous for H20: Just Add Water, The Vampire Diaries and Pretty Little Liars) is partnering with Nutella for the occasion - jealous, right? - and shares our adoration for the spectacular spread:

“Nutella has always been one of my favorite spreads since I was a child."

“A jar of Nutella never lasted long between me and my 3 siblings! Creating those same special memories for my kids is so important, even if it is as simple as making pancakes with Nutella on a Saturday morning.”

Aussie Mango Pancake Skewers with NUTELLA®

Difficulty: ⅓
Time: 30mins
Serves: 12

Ingredients:

To serve:

Method:

  1. In a bowl, sift the flour and a pinch of salt. Create a well in the centre with the back of a spoon, and then break in the egg and pour in half the milk. Whisk together, gradually adding the flour to make a smooth thick batter. Mix thoroughly to remove any lumps, and then stir in the rest of the milk.
  1. Spray a little oil over a medium frying pan. Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan, moving and tilting the pan as you pour until the batter thinly coats the base. Cook over  moderate heat until golden brown on the underside, for approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  1. Flip the pancake over with a spatula, and cook the other side until it is golden brown. Slide the pancake out of the pan onto a plate. Heat a little more oil and cook the remaining pancakes one at a time in the same way. Keep in a warm oven until ready to serve.
  1. Spread a thin layer of Nutella® over the pancake and roll tightly. Cut the pancake into 3cm pieces and place onto a bamboo skewer followed by a square of the mango. Repeat this process until the skewer is full, and then serve immediately to your crowd!

Tasty Tip: If Aussie mangoes aren’t in season, these skewers are just as delicious with bananas, cut into rounds, or any of your favourite fruits.

To serve:

Method:

  1. To make these yummy pancakes, in a bowl mix the ricotta, milk and egg yolks. Sift in the flour, baking powder and salt. Now combine until you have a smooth batter. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold into the ricotta mixture.

  3. To make the strawberry sauce, in a small saucepan, combine the strawberries and sugar and gently stir for 3–4 minutes until a saucy syrup forms.
  4. To serve, spread Nutella® onto each pancake and drizzle the deliciously warm strawberry sauce over the top. You can also add some sliced fresh strawberries for extra decoration!
