Low Carb Keto Nutella [Sugar-free Hazelnut Spread Recipe]

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Spread hazelnuts on baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until browned and fragrant.

Step 3

Once slightly cooled, place hazelnuts in a re-sealable container with the lid on and shake vigorously.

Step 4

Repeat the process until all or most of the skins have been removed from the hazelnuts. You can alternatively rub the skins off yourself.

Step 5

Place the hazelnuts into a food processor or blender. Process for 2-3 minutes until the nuts start to form a nut butter, scraping the sides as needed.

Step 6

Add powdered erythritol/stevia blend, cocoa powder, avocado oil, and vanilla extract. Continue to process for 1-2 minutes or until the consistency resembles a smooth spread. The spread should be smooth and glossy.

Step 7

Taste and adjust sweetener. You can add liquid stevia 2-3 drops at a time until you find a sweetness level you prefer. Store in an airtight container (for up to a month) and enjoy!
