I am sure you all have seen the you-tube videos and recipes how to make the Nutella Star Bread, if you have not here is a link: Star Bread
Two problems, We cannot have gluten nor Nutella due to food allergies and auto immune disease (Celiac) but we really wanted this Star bread.
Well I guess that means we make our own!
Finding a pizza dough that would be sturdy enough to roll out and roll thin (no elastic in gluten-free bread) was rough but we managed by adding a little more flour to the Bob Red Mill gluten-free pizza mix and I will tell you it was not as thin as what they did so ours turned out a little denser and a little harder to twist.
For the Nutella we replaced that with a chocolate peanut butter called Dark Chocolate Dreams.
Was it good? well it may not have looked as pretty as the video but it tasted great! And since its St. Patrick’s day next week I had to try to make a 4 leaf clover using the same technique. I free-handed that one so it’s not as neat looking but still tasted great!
If I can make this, anyone can make this, it was really very simple. It took my daughter and I no time at all rolling it all out spreading and twisting. It may look intimidating but it really isn’t at all.
You should try your own.
This looks and sounds great!
I was actually surprised how easy it was. Sometimes those videos make it look easy then you try it and its like What the Heck! I imagine Nutella would be great in this but with food allergies we will never know.
They sell lots of similar spreads to Nutella I imagine there must be one which works for those with food allergies… ?
