Healthy 'Nutella' Babka

Gooey, rich and full of sumptuous chocolate filling, this vegan healthy 'Nutella' babka is surprisingly easy to make, and is an indulgent treat for anyone – vegan or not! If you've never had babka before, it is a Jewish yeasted bread that is baked in a loaf pan. Usually, it is filled with swirls of cinnamon or, as I grew up eating it, with loads of chocolate goodness. This vegan babka is so delicious! A sweet chocolate sauce between layers of eggless brioche leads to the most desirable soft, fluffy, & delicious babka bread. You may be wondering- but what does it taste like?! Well, first of all, let me just say it is absolutely delicious! Think layers of soft, sweet, & fluffy bread filled with swirls of dense ooey gooey chocolate. The best part about babka? Because of the way it is twisted, you get the flavour of the bread & chocolate in every bite!



There’s a special kind of magic hidden in the twists and swirls of a well-baked chocolate babka. A magic you could get lost in… one of rich, soft dough and luscious chocolate and caramelised golden crust, all lovely and shiny with a sugar syrup glaze. The only thing that comes close to the joy of eating this fluffy, soft richness, streaked with chocolate goodness, is – making it. Seeing it take shape, rolling out the dough, spreading the chocolate filling, rolling it up, getting your hands all sticky while twisting it up into a rustic yet somehow still elegant mess. It is totally indulgent, utterly delicious and makes an amazing treat with a cup of tea or coffee.



Now, this vegan babka recipe may look incredibly fancy, but I promise you it is so easy to make, requires no fancy kitchen gadgets and it will be worth every second. Making a babka is a messy process, and all the more enjoyable for it. just… don’t wear anything white. Have fun. Lick your fingers. And don’t stress over any “imperfections” – the proofing and the baking will smooth over any rough edges. From the rich, soft dough to the most luscious chocolate fudge filling (ever), this vegan chocolate babka tastes just as heavenly as it looks. Without any egg replacements or unusual ingredients, this vegan treat couldn’t be easier to make – and you’ll love it.
