3 Ingredients Nutella Brownies


I've got a bottle of Nutella Spread in our fridge and I'm thinking what are the best desserts I could make out of this ingredient? Then I found out that there's a very easy 3 ingredients Nutella Brownies! It's so easy and yummy you should try it too with your kids and loved ones.

Ingredients:

1 1/4 c Nutella
2 eggs
1/2 c all purpose flour

Procedure: 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a bowl mix all the ingredients until smooth. If you don't want your brownies to be too sweet reduce a few tablespoons of Nutella.
3. Grease your baking pan. I use 6x4 pan. You can also use 9x9. Pour the mixture and smooth the top with spatula.
4. Bake it in the oven for 15 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the brownies, if it comes out clean then it means it's done. Let it cool before slicing it. Serve and enjoy!

Tip:


  • You can also use other Chocolate Spread as a substitute.
  • If you don't have an oven, you can also bake this through an oven toaster for 5 to 8 minutes. just make sure to check it occasionally.
