Nutella Crumb Cake
Nutella Crumb CakeA few months ago I shared an Italian Fresh Peach Crumb Cake. I talked about how this was one of my/our favourite desserts and I was lucky enough to get the recipe from a friend. Well my friends this is the one that started it all.
Just ask my Eldest Daughter who in a little over a month that she has been back in Toronto (I miss her, we all miss her) has made this Italian Nutella Crumb Cake for family and friends, I kid you not 4 times.
Be sure to watch the Video!
She actually made it here in Italy a couple of times, and as she says “If I can do it anyone can do it”. Actually she is becoming a pretty good baker in her own right. But seriously this is a really easy cake to make, and so yummy!
Mix all the dough ingredients together, but remember just until it gets nice and crumbly. Remove 1/3 for the topping, the rest goes in the cake pan and then the good part, spread the Nutella and cover with the remaining 1/3 crumbs. In the oven it goes, let it cool and then dive right in.

In my opinion this Nutella Crumb Cake should step out from behind Tiramisu and just show everyone how darn delicious a crumb cake especially filled with Nutella can be. Enjoy!
