Nutella and Banana Clafoutis with Roasted Hazelnuts
- ½ cup hazelnuts, chopped
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 tablespoons (4 oz.) butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Frangelico
- ½ cup (3.5 oz.) granulated sugar
- ⅔ cup (3.4 oz.) all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 ripe bananas, sliced
- ¾ cup Nutella
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- Butter & Flour Spray
- Preheat the oven to 350 F Degrees.
- Place hazelnuts onto a small baking sheet and roast them for 8-10 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool.
- Increase the temperature of the oven to 375 F Degrees.
- Put eggs, heavy
cream, butter, Frangelico, vanilla extract, and sugar into a
medium-mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth. (I did by hand, but if you want
you can use a mixer.)
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gently, whisk the dry ingredients in to the wet ingredients, until combined and there are no lumps remaining.
- Fill a piping bag with Nutella. Set aside.
- Spray a 10-inch pie pan with butter and flour spray.
- Arrange half of the sliced bananas, in a single layer, in to the pie pan. Pour half of the batter over the bananas.
- Pipe the Nutella all over the batter (for more, see the video).
- Pour the rest of the batter over the Nutella, making sure that it is all covered.
- Arrange rest of the bananas on top, and sprinkle it generously with roasted hazelnuts.
- Using a rubber spatula, smooth the surface of the batter.
- Bake it for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the custard is firm.
- Allow it to cool in room temperature, for at least 30 minutes.
- When cooled, if you’d like, dust it with cocoa powder and powdered sugar.
- Serve immediately.
