Ingredients

  • 9 oz. raw hazelnuts (2 cups)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips see notes
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F and place the hazelnuts on a large baking sheet. Once the oven is heated, place the hazelnuts in the oven and roast them for 7-8 minutes.
  • Optional: Use a clean towel or paper towel to rub the skins off for an extra smooth consistency; some of the skins won't come off and you can either peel by hand or just throw into the food processor as-is.
  • Transfer the roasted hazelnuts to your food processor, then pulse for 2 minutes. Remove the lid, scrape down the sides, then pulse for 2 more minutes. Continue this process until you have creamy hazelnut butter. It should take 6-8 minutes total.
  • Meanwhile, place the chocolate chips into a bowl.
  • Once the hazelnuts are smooth and creamy, scrape the mixture into the bowl with the chocolate chips and stir continuously for 1 minute. The chocolate chips should melt and result in creamy, delicious Nutella! If they don't seem to be melting, place the bowl in the microwave for 15 seconds and that should do the trick. Enjoy!

Notes

*Calories are per serving and are an estimation
*Make sure to buy raw hazelnuts; roasting them manually (rather than buying pre-roasted) will result in a better flavor. Plus, the hazelnuts will blend better if they're warm.
*Chocolate: Use dairy-free chocolate to keep this vegan and sugar-free chocolate to keep it sugar-free. I typically prefer semi-sweet or dark chocolate over milk chocolate You can use chocolate chips OR chopped chocolate -- whatever you prefer.
*Storage: store Nutella in a sealed jar at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
