In light of today’s event and tonight’s recipe, I’m going to try and keep this as decadently simple a Nutella indulgence can ever be.
Two years ago, Ms. Adventures in Italy and Bleeding Espresso declared this day, the 5th of January, World Nutella Day; a day to unite Nutella lovers all over the world to celebrate with a jar in one hand, and thousands of serving ideas in another.
A quick run to the supermarket to get me a jar of Nutella (they’re on sale today, what are the odds!), and a random mish-mash of what’s in the fridge later in the evening, saw the Nutella-lover in me rejoicing the day with a ramekin of comforting Nutella bread pudding.
Nutella Bread Pudding
(serves one, or two if you really wanna share)
2 slices of day-old bread
1 egg
1/2 cup soy milk
1/8 cup white sugar (basically 1/2 of the 1/4 cup)
Nutella
- Preheat oven to 170C.
- Spread Nutella over a slice of bread, and sandwich it with the other slice. Cut the sandwich into small cubes.
- In a bowl, whisk egg, milk and sugar.
- Soak the bread cubes in the milk mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a greased ramekin.
- Go crazy and slather more Nutella on top.
- Bake at 170C for 20-25 mins. Leave to cool for about 5-10mins.

i’m not really sure how i missed nutella day, but never fear–i’ll make up for it every day next week by eating spoonfuls daily.

Paula: Wish I had some to send over to you!
Elra: It sure did! Thanks for dropping by
The Purplefoodie: Me neither, but I reckon anything with Nutella would make it a winner!
Gigi: Happy Nutella Day to you too! I actually made it a recipe for one because I wasn’t too sure if it was gonna turn out
But I’m sure glad it did! 
Dorothy: Thanks, dearie!
grace: Ah, that’s the best way EVER to celebrate Nutella Day!

Totally forgot about Nutella day, such a shame because I love, love, love it!
At first glance I thought it was some sort of muffin but it turned out being a bread pudding. Delicious as well, especially the Nutella part
#18 by ovenhaven on February 8, 2009 - 9:34 am
The Cooking Ninja: I hope you’ll like it as much as I did
And no worries, Nutella’s supposed to be celebrated every day with a spoon in the jar 
mammamm: No problem, hamster! I like me quickie recipes as well
linda: It sure was! As delicious as it was, I actually couldn’t finish it, so I ended up scraping the Nutella bits
#19 by zorra on February 11, 2009 - 2:02 am
Yummie, I would like to taste it rihgt now!
#20 by ovenhaven on February 12, 2009 - 2:38 pm
zorra: You should give it a try! The only downside was that it was wiped out almost as fast as it was whipped up
#21 by Manda(Claire) on December 24, 2009 - 6:40 am
OMG nutella is heaven! AND THIS IS EVEN MORE HEAVENLY!
#22 by ovenhaven on December 24, 2009 - 11:36 am
