Nutella 40g
Whole milk 50ml
Egg 1
Butter 30g
Powdered sugar To taste
Colored sprinkles To taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bread Stars: Start by cutting the slices of bread into star-shaped pieces using a cookie cutter. You can choose any shape you prefer, such as hearts, flowers, or circles, depending on your preference or the occasion.

  2. Add Nutella: For the Nutella filling, place the jar of Nutella in the fridge for about 30 minutes to firm it up slightly (or in the freezer for 10-15 minutes if you’re short on time). Once it’s firmed up, take a teaspoon of Nutella and spread it on one piece of bread. Then, place another piece of bread on top to form a sandwich.

  3. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and whole milk until smooth. This will serve as the coating for the bread stars.

  4. Coat the Stars: Dip each Nutella-filled bread star into the egg and milk mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated on both sides.

  5. Cook the Stars: In a non-stick pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, carefully place the bread stars in the pan. Cook them for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden and crispy.

  6. Finish with Sugar and Sprinkles: Once the stars are cooked, transfer them to a plate. Dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle some colorful sprinkles over the top to give them a festive touch.

  7. Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Stelline alla Nutella warm as a delicious, fun treat for two! Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a dessert.


This easy-to-make dessert is a delightful, kid-friendly treat that combines the warmth of crispy bread with the richness of Nutella, finished with a sprinkle of sweetness. Perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a special breakfast or an afternoon snack.
