Ingredients
- 1 12-ounce can Pillsbury big and flaky crescent rolls
- 5 tbsp Nutella 2 tsp per croissant

- Optional garnishes: melted chocolate chips, honey, powdered sugar
Instructions
- Separate the croissants and lay them flat.
- Spread about 2 teaspoons of Nutella on the entire top of the croissant.
- Place ½ tablespoon of chocolate chips on the large end.
- Start rolling at the large end.
- Make egg wash by whisking together egg and water or milk until combined.
- Brush egg wash onto uncooked croissant.
- Spray the bottom of the air fryer basket with cooking spray and place croissants in a single layer into the basket. Allow for some spreading.
- Air fry for 8 minutes at 360 degrees or until golden brown.
- Give them a quick wash with warm honey, a little chocolate chip drizzle, and powdered sugar.
Notes
Storage:
You can store leftover Nutella chocolate chip croissants at room temperature in an airtight container, or in the fridge. If stored at room temperature they will last for 3-4 days. In the fridge they will last for about 1 week, although the croissants may begin to dry out. These are definitely best served fresh, especially since they are so quick and easy to make. I recommend warming leftovers in the microwave before serving.
Important Notes:
- Spray with cooking spray or put parchment paper prior to placing the croissant in the basket.
- Cooking the croissants at 8 minutes makes them a deep brown but it's necessary because any less and they don’t cook all the way through.
