Description
A delicious homemade chocolate hazelnut spread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups raw hazelnuts
- 3 tablespoons coconut sugar (or any granulated sweetener of choice)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a pan with the hazelnuts in a single layer, and toast for 7-8 minutes.
- Allow hazelnuts to cool completely. Transfer to a large dish towel, and wrap up the corners. Using one hand, press and shake the hazelnuts together roughly, to remove the skins.
- Open up the dish towel and the skins should easily fall off the hazelnuts.
- Place the skinned hazelnuts into a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend for 2-3 minutes, until a flour-like consistency remains. Stir with a rubber spatula and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Add your cocoa powder and granulated sweetener, and continue blending until fully combined and silky-smooth.
- Transfer your chocolate hazelnut spread into a jar or container.
Notes
- Make sure to cool the hazelnuts completely before removing the skins.
- For a sweeter spread, adjust the amount of coconut sugar to taste.
