Love nutella but hate the ingredients? This vegan nutella can be easily made at home and is much much healthier than the store bought version. This spread is completely dairy free, soy free and gluten free without sacrificing the taste.
Making your own hazelnut-based nutella spread at home saves you a lot and you get to control what goes into the spread – I used refined sugar free chocolate and dates to sweeten my nutella without any actual sugar. It’s a little more thick and nutty in texture and flavour but melts beautifully when spread on a warm slice of toasted bread.
Ingredients You Need
- raw hazelnuts – I used a bag of organic, raw hazelnuts. Buying in bigger quantities gives more value for money
- sweetener – I used medjool dates, with the seeds removed. You can also use maple syrup in place of this
- chocolate – I used melted refined sugar-free chocolate with clean ingredients
