Recipe for shrovetide buns with nutella
We love “fastelavnsboller” at home. Here, I have a sinful version with whipped cream and Nutella.
I have tried countless versions, but I usually make “fastelavnsboller” with yeast dough. I have previously shared these “fastelavnsboller” with vanilla cream and marzipan foam as well as “fastelavnsboller” with pastry cream and chocolate here on GastroFun.

Notes

The same yeast bun as above, but with vanilla cream, whipped cream, strawberry jam, and chocolate icing.
The vanilla cream consists of half custard and half whipped cream.
