Simple Sugar Free Nutella
Description
Simple Sugar Free Nutella combines blanched or skinned roasted hazelnuts with coconut oil, cocoa powder, and allulose to create a smooth, no-sugar-added spread. Roasting the hazelnuts helps release oils and remove skins, resulting in a toasted nut flavor that underlies the spread. Blending until smooth produces a creamy consistency that can be adjusted in firmness by cooling. A touch of vanilla extract can enhance the aroma and add subtle complexity. The spread's texture is softer at room temperature but firms when refrigerated, making storage an important consideration.
The recipe is well suited for those avoiding sugar, using allulose as a sweetener instead. It can be stored for up to a month in the refrigerator in an airtight container, maintaining freshness and texture. High-speed blenders work best to achieve a smooth creaminess, though other processors may take longer and require additional fat or liquid to assist blending. A pinch of salt may be added to balance and amplify flavors if desired.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup / 200g hazelnut blanched or with skins on
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 3-4 tbsp cocoa powder unsweetened
- 3 tbsp / 22g allulose
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
Instructions
- If you're using nuts with the skins on: Roast the hazelnuts in a preheated oven at 180 Celsius / 350 F for 10 minutes or until the skins start to come off and the nuts are golden brown.
- Once the nuts are cooled, rub them in a towel or between your palms to remove the skins.
- Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender/food processor until smooth. This takes around 5 minutes, depending on the power of your appliance. In between, scrape down the sides of the blender. ***see notes
Notes
- Roast hazelnuts to loosen skins and enhance flavor before blending.
- Store the spread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month to maintain texture and freshness.
- Use a high-speed blender for a smooth consistency; less powerful processors may need extra coconut oil or nut milk.
- Adding a pinch of salt can enhance the overall flavor.
