Are you a Nutella lover who craves that creamy chocolate-hazelnut spread but worries about the calories and unhealthy additives? Well, worry no more! In this article, we will share an easy recipe to make light Nutella at home. This healthier alternative will satisfy your taste buds while giving you peace of mind.

Why make your own light Nutella?

  • Control over ingredients: Making Nutella at home allows you to choose the quality of ingredients and eliminate unhealthy additives often found in store-bought versions.
  • Lower calories: Homemade light Nutella typically contains fewer calories compared to the commercial version, making it a guilt-free treat.
  • Customizable flavor: You can adjust the sweetness and intensity of hazelnut flavor according to your preference, ensuring a perfectly tailored spread.

What you’ll need:

  • 1 cup roasted hazelnuts
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (adjust according to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions:

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast them for approximately 10 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them!

  2. Allow the hazelnuts to cool slightly, then transfer them to a kitchen towel. Fold the towel over the nuts and rub them together to remove the loose skins.

  3. In a food processor or blender, grind the hazelnuts until they form a smooth paste. This should take about 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides as needed.

  4. Add the cocoa powder, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and vegetable oil to the hazelnut paste. Blend everything again until well combined and creamy.

  5. Pour your homemade light Nutella into a clean, airtight container. It can be stored at room temperature for up to two weeks, or refrigerate it for a longer shelf life.
