Ingredients
- hazelnuts - 300g (peeled)
- sugar - watch the video to see (to taste)
- cocoa powder - watch the video to see (to taste)
- vanilla - watch the video to see (to taste)
- salt - 1 g (approximately 1 gram)
- neutral oil - watch the video to see (added to adjust spread consistency)
Instructions
- Toast Hazelnuts: Spread hazelnuts evenly on a baking tray and toast in the oven for 6 to 8 minutes until toasted but not burnt. If the skins do not come off easily, toast for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Remove Skins: Once toasted, remove the skins from the hazelnuts by rubbing them. Reserve the peeled hazelnuts in a bowl.
- Grind Hazelnuts: Place the peeled hazelnuts in a food processor and blend for about 2-3 minutes. Scrape the edges with a spoon as needed until the mixture reaches a smooth, buttery consistency.
- Add Flavorings: Add sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla, and approximately 1 gram of salt to the hazelnut butter. Blend again until well combined and fragrant.
- Add Oil and Final Blend: Add a shot of neutral oil to the mixture to achieve a creamy, spreadable consistency. Blend again until smooth.
- Adjust Consistency: If a less thick spread is desired, add a little more neutral oil when transferring the spread to a container.
