Ingredients

  •  4 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 85g caster sugar
  • 1.5g salt
  • 45g hazelnut flour
  • 95g plain wheat flour
  • 20g cream
  • 30g butter
  • 1 vanilla pod
  • 2g grated orange rind
  • 1g grated lemon rind
  • To garnish: 5 hazelnuts, 2 strawberries (about 15g), 20g banana, 20g kiwi
  • 150g Nutella®

 

Procedure:

 Beat the eggs, yolk, vanilla, flavourings and salt together with the sugar.

Sieve the flours.

Melt the butter in a bain-marie, along with the cream.

When the egg mixture is firm, carefully add the flours.

Take a little bit of the dough and work it into the butter/cream mixture. Add a bit more.

Mix everything together very carefully.

Bake at 175° for approx. 15 minutes.

Spread the mixture onto a baking tray covered with greaseproof paper (so it's 1cm thick).

Bake at 175° for approx. 10/15 minutes.

Leave to cool, then cut out 4x4cm squares (there should be 30 pieces).

One portion corresponds to 3 squares. Spread 5g Nutella® on each square (total 15g) and top with two little pieces of strawberry, ½ a hazelnut, a slice of kiwi and a slice of banana.
