Nutella Stuffed Pancakes

Nutella-Stuffed Pancakes
Servings: 7 to 8
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 10 to 14 tablespoons Nutella®
• Pancake Batter:
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk

Directions:

1. Prepare Nutella Discs:
   Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon 1 ½ tablespoons of Nutella® onto the prepared sheet, spreading each into a round disc about 2 ½ inches in diameter. Repeat to create 7 to 8 discs. Freeze for 15-20 minutes, until firm.
2. Make Pancake Batter:
   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and milk. Stir until fully combined and smooth.
3. Cook Pancakes:
   Preheat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat and lightly spray with non-stick spray. Pour ¼ cup of pancake batter onto the griddle. Place a frozen Nutella® disc in the center of the batter, then cover the disc with additional batter. When bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
4. Serve:
   Keep the pancakes warm while you cook the remaining batches. Serve warm and enjoy the surprise Nutella® center!
