3 Ingredient Nutella Brownies
My rich, fudgy chocolate brownies are made with my favorite chocolate hazelnut spread. Can you believe this recipe doesn't require flour OR brownie mix?!
These Nutella Brownies Might Be The Easiest Recipe On My Site!
I love using Nutella in baked goods. I've previously shared Nutella cupcakes and Nutella cheesecake on the blog. When I first heard about this Nutella Brownies recipe, I was very skeptical! However, they are some of the best brownies I've ever had. They're super rich and fudgy. SO Easy too: No flour, one bowl, and 2 simple ingredients are that stand between you and these gooey brownies.
I love these when I'm craving something sweet at midnight.They're also a great after-school snack with a big tall glass of milk. Bonus: This recipe is naturally gluten-free.
Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips
- Nutella: Nutella is a chocolate hazelnut spread. When baking, I always use brand names to achieve the best results.
- Eggs: Whisk until the eggs are light yellow in color and tripled in size. This will give your brownies height.
- Also, make sure they're at room temperature to help them incorporate smoothly.
Nutella Tip
Your Nutella should be smooth and spreadable. If its not microwave for 20-30 seconds.
How To Make Nutella Brownies
- Prep Work: Preheat oven and line pan with foil.
- Beat Eggs: Beat eggs until they have tripled in size.
- Mix: Stir in warm Nutella.
- Bake: Bake for 30-35 minutes.
FAQs
Brownies are done when a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs on it. If you see just brownie batter on the toothpick, continue baking for a few minutes at a time.
Do not overbake. They'll continue to firm up as they cool.
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
️Krystle's Tips️
- Incorporate Air: The secret to making the perfect Nutella brownies is to make sure you whip your eggs up. Since this recipe lacks a leavening agent like baking powder, the air helps them rise. You can certainly use a stand/hand mixer if you have it. I have neither, so I used a whisk and lots of elbow grease. (My favorite secret ingredient!)
- Use Foil: Line your pan with foil for easy cleanup and removal.
- Don't overbake: Overbaking will lead to a tough and dry brownie.
- My Mom's Tip: Slice with a plastic knife for perfect cuts every time (plastic is naturally nonstick).
Easy Measuring Tip
Spray your measuring cup with nonstick spray to prevent the Nutella from sticking.
