Equipment

  • mixing bowls
  • Loaf pan
  • Cookie scoop
  • butter knife
  • Aluminum foil

Ingredients

Streusel Topping:

  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 Tablespoons butter chilled
  • ½ cup chopped toasted hazelnuts

Bread:

  • 2 ¼ cup flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup butter room temperature
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • cup milk
  • ½ cup nutella
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon warm water
  • ¼ cup chopped toasted hazelnuts

Instructions

To make the streusel topping:

  • Combine the 2 Tbsp flour, 2 Tbsp brown sugar and salt in a small bowl.
  • Cut the butter into the mixture using knives or your hands until the mixture is crumbly.
  • Add the hazelnuts and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

To make the bread:

  • Combine the flour, salt and baking powder in a bowl and set it to the side.
  • In another bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until it is light and fluffy.
  • Add in the eggs, one at a time and mix.
  • Add the vanilla and mix.
  • Take ½ of the flour mix and add to the batter and combine.
  • Add ½ of the milk and combine.
  • Repeat until both the flour and milk have been incorporated into the batter and everything is thoroughly mixed.
  • In a small bowl mix together the nutella, cocoa powder, hazelnuts and warm water and stir to combine.
  • Divide the flour/sugar batter evenly between 2 bowls and into one, add the nutella/chocolate mix and stir.
  • Using a cookie scoop, place alternating scoops of chocolate and vanilla batter into a 9” x 5” baking pan that has been well greased, or use a nonstick option.
  • Using a knife, draw back and forth through the dough lengthwise to swirl the doughs together.
  • Place in the oven and bake for 40 minutes.
  • Remove and add streusel topping.
  • Return to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.
  • Add a piece of foil to the top to prevent the streusel from burning and bake the remaining 10 minutes, or until a knife comes out clean.
  • Allow to rest in the pan for about 5 minutes, before removing and allowing to cool completely on a rack.
