Heat your skillet or frying pan to medium heat, adding some butter to it. Take bread and cut slices that are at least 1 inch thick. While the toast is standing up, make a slit in the middle of the bottom, so that you can form a pocket (see photos above). Make sure not to slice all the way through. Stuff the pocket with Nutella.
Dip the toast in pancake batter. Then place on heated skillet. Because my pancake batter was thick, I found it easier to slather one side, then place on the skillet and put more pancake batter on the other side of the bread while it was cooking. Cook each side for about 1-1 1/2 minutes until pancake batter is a golden brown.
Drizzle with syrup and serve while warm.
Notes
For the bread, I used Thomas Keller's recipe or you can use your favorite recipe or buy bread.
For the pancakes, I used this recipe from Food Network without the blueberries or you can use a pancake mix.
