Ingredient Needed

  • 1 egg, beaten lightly

How To Make Air Fryer Nutella Puff Pastry

  1. Preheat the air fryer: Preheat a 7-litre air fryer to 200°C (400°F) for 3 minutes.
  2. Prepare the pastry: Cut each puff pastry sheet into nine 8cm (3¼-inch) squares.
  3. Fill the pastries: Spoon 1½ teaspoons of Nutella and 1 teaspoon of chopped hazelnuts onto the centre of each square.
  4. Seal the pastries: Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg. Fold each square into a triangle, enclosing the filling. Use a fork to press and seal the edges.
  5. Cook in batches: Carefully place half the turnovers in the air fryer basket. Cook at 200°C (400°F) for 8 minutes, until golden and crispy. Transfer to a wire rack and repeat with the remaining turnovers.
  6. Serve: Enjoy warm for the best taste!

Recipe Tips

  • Use cold pastry: Keep the puff pastry cold before using. If it gets too soft, place it in the fridge for 10 minutes to make handling easier.
  • Seal well: Press the edges firmly with a fork to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
  • Don’t overfill: Too much Nutella can cause the pastry to burst open while cooking. Stick to 1½ teaspoons per piece for the best results.
  • Preheat the air fryer: Always preheat for even cooking and a crispy, golden crust.
  • Work in batches: Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket to ensure even airflow and perfectly cooked pastries.

How To Store Leftovers?

  • Refrigerate: Let the leftover Nutella puff pastry cool to room temperature. Then, store them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Enjoy cold or at room temperature.
  • Freeze: Place the cooled pastries in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until firm. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
