Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • 9x5 Pan
  • Oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt I prefer Fage
  • 1 cup self rising flour*
  • 4 oreos creme removed, crushed finely
  • 3-5 tbsp Nutella depending how much you like
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar mixed with 1/2 tbsp milk for a basic confectioners glaze optional, for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 365F
  • Combine yogurt, crushed Oreos, and self rising flour in a bowl and stir/knead until you have a uniform dough ball
  • Lightly flour a clean surface and roll your dough ball out to 1/4 inch thickness with a rolling pin
  • Cut the dough into a rectangle for smoother edges
  • Microwave Nutella for 20 seconds to make it easier to spread, and then spread on the dough, leaving about 1/4 inch on each side so it doesn't ooze out
  • Roll the dough tightly and (optional) pop into the fridge for 30 minutes to firm the dough up a bit before cutting
  • To cut, I recommend using unflavored dental floss and cutting from under the dough. You can also carefully cut with a knife, but you'll likely need to re-shape your buns a bit.
  • Arrange buns in a greased pan (9x5 loaf pan for a half batch, 8x8 pan or 8 inch skillet for a full batch of minis) so that they're touching
  • Bake for 17-20 minutes (keep an eye on them), until they're just golden brown
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes while you prepare your toppings.
  • If using confectioners glaze, combine powdered sugar and milk (or you can use a creamer, heavy cream, dairy free milk, etc) until you have a runny glaze and drizzle it over the buns. Top with extra crushed Oreos and ENJOY!

Notes

*Don't have self rising flour? You can make your own by combining 1 cup of all purpose flour with 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp of salt.
*When divided into 8, each bun is 5 WW SP, not including additional glaze topping.
*7 SP with glaze topping.
