Homemade

I've been trying to get rid of preservatives and too much sugar. I made my own Nutella with probably about 1/5 the sugar of the real stuff, and it tastes amazing! I also make whole wheat hamburger buns. I can't go back to store bought now, it tastes too fake.

Homemade Nutella

2 cups of hazelnuts

3 oz. bakers chocolate or 3 tbsp Cocoa powder and 1 tbsp Coconut oil

1 cup milk

½ cup unrefined sugar

1 tbsp of vanilla extract

a pinch of salt

1) Toast the hazelnuts: Place the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Remove the skin. Place the hazelnuts in a tea towel and rub them until the skin turns to dust.

2) Using a food processor or blender, turn the hazelnuts into a smooth butter. It’s ok if there are some pieces left.

3) Place the chocolate, milk, sugar and vanilla in a double boiler and melt the ingredients whisking from time to time until well combined.

4) Stir in the hazelnut butter and keep whisking until the mixture is completely incorporated and it starts to thicken. Cook the cream for not more that 5 minutes and then put it in a clean and sanitized jar.
