Ingredients
2
cups
raw hazelnuts
1
cup
dark chocolate
chopped or chips
2
tablespoons
unsweetened cocoa powder
2
tablespoons
powdered sugar or honey
optional for sweetness
1
teaspoon
vanilla extract
2
tablespoons
neutral oil
like coconut or sunflower oil
A pinch of salt
Instructions
Roast the Hazelnuts
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spread the hazelnuts evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast for 10-12 minutes or until the skins darken and crack.
Remove the Skins
Allow the hazelnuts to cool slightly.
Place them in a kitchen towel and rub to remove the skins. (Don’t worry if some skin remains.)
Blend the Hazelnuts
Add the roasted hazelnuts to a high-powered blender or food processor.
Blend on high speed for 2-4 minutes until the nuts turn into a smooth butter. Scrape down the sides as needed.
Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until fully smooth.
Combine Everything
Add the melted chocolate, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, oil, powdered sugar (if using), and a pinch of salt to the blender.
Blend again until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness and texture to your liking.
Store and Enjoy
Transfer the Nutella to a clean glass jar. Let it cool before sealing.
Keep it at room temperature for up to two weeks, or refrigerate it for an extended shelf life.
