Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with a little vegetable oil.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water to make a flax egg. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flax egg, almond milk, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
To prepare the homemade vegan Nutella, first toast the hazelnuts in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes until fragrant, then let them cool. Once cooled, rub them between a kitchen towel to remove the skins.
In a food processor, blend the hazelnuts until they become a coarse crumb. Add the cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and vegetable oil, then blend again until you achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
Pour half of the bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, then spread a thick layer of the vegan Nutella over the batter.
Top with the remaining batter, spreading it out evenly. Use a knife to gently swirl the batter with the Nutella layer to create a marbled effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the vegan Nutella bread warm or at room temperature.
