Homemade Nutella
HB-14063 · Hand-built original
A smooth hazelnut and cocoa spread made by roasting hazelnuts and blending them to a paste with icing sugar, oil and vanilla.
Main ingredient: raw skinless hazelnuts
Pairs well with: coffee, vanilla ice cream, fresh berries, whipped cream
Ingredients
- 8 oz raw skinless hazelnuts
- 1/4 cup Dutch processed unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup icing sugar / confectionary sugar
- 2 tbsp hazelnut oil (or vegetable, canola, grapeseed or other neutral flavoured oil)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Method
- Heat the oven to 350°F and roast the skinless hazelnuts on a baking tray for about 8 minutes until golden.
- Blend the warm hazelnuts on low speed until they crumble, scraping down the sides, then raise the speed in stages until the nut butter turns to a smooth, honey-like paste.
- Add the cocoa powder, icing sugar, hazelnut oil and vanilla extract and blend again from low to high until the spread is completely smooth and the sugar dissolves.
- Pour the homemade hazelnut spread into a jar and let it cool to spreading consistency at room temperature rather than in the fridge.
