Continuing our healthy sweet treat alternatives, is a recipe for my favorite indulgence. This version of nutella tastes just like the original but much healthier.
Ingredients: 2 cups hazelnuts 1/4 cup cacoa powder (or unsweetened cocoa powder 1/2 cup full fat coconut milk 4 Tbsp. Agave 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 2 pinches unrefined salt Instructions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place hazelnuts on baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes until nuts are fragrant and slightly brown. Remove from oven. To peel off skins, place roasted nuts into the fold of a kitchen towel and gently massage until most of the skin comes off. Place peeled hazelnuts into food processor and process until creamy smooth (about 8-10 minutes). Be sure to scrape sides a few times. Add remaining ingredients and process until smooth. This may take a couple of minutes. Adjust consistency with extra coconut milk if too thick. Store in airtight glass container for about a week.
