Ingredients
  • 2 C raw hazelnuts
  • 3 oz dark chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • **optional - 1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Spread hazelnuts out on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 8 minutes. Allow to cool to room temp.
  3. Add roasted hazelnuts to a food processor and process until broken down and hazelnuts turn into a peanut butter consistency.
  4. In a microwave safe bowl, add chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave until melted. Add the chocolate to the hazelnut butter.
  5. Add vanilla and salt and pulse until incorporated. If you add the maple syrup add it last and pulse once or twice quickly. The maple syrup will thicken the nutella when overmixed.
  6. Store in a mason jar with a lid at room temperature.
