Homemade nutella recipe with step by step photos. Sharing a very easy to make, healthy and vegan nutella recipe- A nut chocolate spread recipe with you all today.

Nutella is a hot favorite among kids and adults alike these days. No wonder it is a favorite as it is very tasty, rich and most important it is easily available. We like nutella in our home too but I was not very comfortable with using it very often. So I used to buy it on and off. Then I started getting requests for homemade nutella, only then I thought I should try homemade nutella recipe. Homemade nutella, hygienic, fresh, high quality ingredients and absolutely no chemicals, now is that not great news 🙂

I referred many recipes for homemade nutella and found the one I am sharing now to be the most common recipe. I have made utella recipe with toasted almonds. Hazelnuts are crazy expensive here and even those expensive nuts are mostly rancid from my experience. So I used nice organic almonds to make nutella. Next I have used powdered cane sugar. Yeah this nutella is not only tasty but very healthy too. No white sugar at all. To make it luscious and creamy I have added 2 tablespoons extra light olive oil. You can use edible almond oil or hazelnut oil too if available.

To make homemade nutella recipe the most important equipment is a food processor. The nuts should be processed thoroughly until the butter starts to release. Here I have not peeled the skin of almonds. To get super smooth nutella I suggest, you blanch, peel and then toast it. here I have just toasted the nuts. Use high quality dark cocoa powder for a dark spread.

Store homemade nutella in a clean dry jar and keep refrigerated.

Here is how to make homemade nutella recipe with almonds.

Step by step homemade nutella recipe.

1.Take toasted almonds or hazelnuts in the food processor jar. Process in high speed. Give few minutes gap to prevent tye over heating of the processor.

2. Upon processing the nuts will become a lump first and on further processing the butter will release and the whole mixture will turn smooth and silky.

3. Add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, a pinch of salt and olive oil to the almond butter.

4. Process again till the whole mixture turns smooth and glossy. Remove from the jar and add 1 teaspoon oil again. Mix thoroughly. Store homemade nutella in a clean jar and use as spread or topping. Keeps well for 10 days in fridge.
