Even before the first bite, pancakes with Nutella warms the heart. The chocolate hazelnut spread adds sweet, luscious deliciousness to every bite. The beloved Ferrero brand is back with its “Stacks for Giving Back” program. With help from chefs Alex Guarnaschelli and Christian Petroni, these chef-inspired Nutella pancake recipes will quickly become a new mealtime tradition.
For the past three years, Nutella supported local fire departments with a charitable campaign. Through the program, Stacks for Giving Back, the charitable event raised funds and awareness for the firefighters, their important role in local communities and their positive attitudes.
This year, the program returns. Nutella partnered with Pearl Milling Company to offer Pancake Breakfast Kits to deserving firefighters and their community. People can nominate local fire departments at NutellaStacksforGivingBack.com.
As Noah Szporn, Senior Vice President of Spreads, Ferrero North America shared, “Nutella has always been about bringing people together over something delicious, and there’s no better pairing than Nutella and pancakes to celebrate the firefighters who bring communities together every day. Three years in, Stacks for Giving Back shows our ongoing commitment to supporting these everyday heroes—one pancake stack topped with Nutella at a time.”
Whip Up Delicious Chef-Inspired Nutella Pancake Recipes to Bring Smiles Around the Table
While the Stacks for Giving Back program serves pancakes on a larger scale, the program enlists two favorite Food Network chefs to inspire home cooks to enjoy some delicious meals at home. This year, both Alex Guarnaschelli and Christian Petroni shared flavorful pancake recipes featuring the favorite chocolate hazelnut spread.
Chef Alex’s recipe is Nutella Cornmeal and Fresh Raspberry Pancakes. The idea of a heartier cornmeal pancake is a departure from the traditional fluffy flapjack. The sweetness of the corn highlights the nuttiness of the Nutella. A slightly more savory approach, this dish proves that pancakes are delicious at any time of day.
Raspberries bring a brightness to the dish and helps to keep it from becoming heavy. That touch of tartness contrasts the various sweet notes. Each fruit morsel is like a little juicy treasure.
In contrast, Chef Christian’s Nutella Banana Bread Pancakes are rich, comforting and quite satisfying. Bananas and Nutella are a classic combination. These pancakes feel like the homey bread but it is much quicker to make. When it is time to add some new “appeal” to the fruit, these pancakes will start any day with a smile.
