This Nutela sun pastry is the non-holiday version of this Nutella Christmas tree pastry. The recipe is the same, the end result is different, but this Nutella sun pastry is still impressive (and delicious, of course). You only need a few ingredients for this easy Nutella pastry dessert :

Puff pastry - I used storebought, but if you want to use homemade, go ahead ! You'll need two 6in circles of puff pastry to make this Nutella sun pastry.

Nutella - I didn't measure out exactly how much Nutella I used, but 4-5 tablespoons will be enough. You don't want to use too much Nutella or twisting the dough will be a bit more difficult.

Egg yolk (Optional) - to give the Nutella pastry that beautiful golden color !

You could also sprinkle some vanilla sugar over the pastry before you put it in the oven, or add a dusting of icing sugar after the pastry has cooled.

Here's how to make a Nutella sun pastry :

1). Roll out the puff pastry. On one circle, spread a thin layer of Nutella (about 4 or 5 tablespoons - don't use too much.)
2). Cover with the second circle of puff pastry.
3). Place a round cookie-cutter (or an upside down glass) in the center of the puff pastry circle.
4). Using a sharp knife, make cuts about 1cm apart around the cookie cutter (see picture).
5). Twist the sliced dough a couple times.
6). Beat an egg yolk and brush the puff pastry with the egg wash.
7). Bake in a preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until the puff pastry is a nice golden color.
