Whatever way you choose, there’s no denying that Nutella is creamy, hazelnutty (is that a word – let’s go with it) goodness! Celebrity Chef Faita has created six delicious, new breakfast recipes to add a little joy to your morning (or mid-morning snack!) including Greek Yogurt with Homemade Granola and Nutella Apple and Carrot Latkes with Nutella, Ricotta and Fruit Crostini with Nutella, Tortilla Breakfast Cups with Nutella, Blintzes with Pineapple, Yogurt and Nutella, and Chia Banana Strawberry Breakfast Jar with Nutella.

As part of the Nutella Network (fancy, right?) was recently invited to Toronto to learn first-hand from Chef Faita how to create these new recipes, in a state of the art kitchen. I’m a visual person, I prefer recipes heavy with photos or video to explain the process, so having an in-person experience like this was fantastic!

I like the versatility with this recipe. While the original recipe calls for ricotta, you can also try cottage cheese. Blackberries, raspberries and mango were used but I think it would be delicious with mandarin and strawberries – you can basically make this recipe work as long as you have the fundamentals of a crispy tortilla, fresh fruit, a creamy mix and of course, delicious Nutella.
