Ingredients with Measurements

12–16 mini pancakes or mini poffertjes
6–8 fresh strawberries
2 bananas
120 g Nutella (for melting)
100 g white chocolate (for melting)
6–8 wooden skewers
Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Step-by-Step Directions

Wash the strawberries and remove the stems. Peel the bananas and slice them into thick rounds.
If using larger pancakes, cut them into smaller, bite-sized pieces.
Melt the Nutella in a water bath until smooth and pourable. In a separate bowl, melt the white chocolate the same way.
Take a wooden skewer and start assembling: add a pancake, followed by a strawberry, then a banana slice.
Repeat the layering until the skewer is filled, leaving space at one end for easy handling.
Place all assembled sticks on a serving tray.
Drizzle melted Nutella over the sticks for a rich chocolate flavor.
Add a drizzle of white chocolate for contrast and extra sweetness.
Optional: dust lightly with powdered sugar for a bakery-style finish.
Serve immediately while the chocolate is soft and glossy.
