Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw hazelnuts
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.5 cup almond milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the hazelnuts in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until the skins begin to crack and the nuts are fragrant. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Remove the hazelnuts from the oven and let them cool slightly. Place them in a kitchen towel and rub them together to remove most of the skins. It’s okay if some skin remains.
Transfer the hazelnuts to a food processor. Process the hazelnuts until they form a smooth butter, this could take about 5-10 minutes.
Add the cocoa powder, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract, sea salt, and coconut oil to the processor. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Slowly add the almond milk while the processor is running, blending until the nutella reaches your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more sugar or a pinch more salt.
Transfer the nutella to a jar with a lid and store at room temperature for up to two weeks or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
