On a mission to make vegan nutella, I bought some hazelnuts and opted for light coconut milk to see if I could deliver the same result without the dairy or chocolate. This is not only a 5-minute recipe, it is low in sugar and made from natural ingredients, so your kids (and yourself) won’t experience that “crash” that comes from other processed treats.
Tools:
Food processor
Ingredients:
1 cup hazelnuts
2 heaping tbsp cocoa powder
2 tbsp palm sugar
2-4 tbsp light coconut milk (try making your own)
½ tsp. vanilla
Let’s get started.
1.In a food processor, blend nuts for 2-3 minutes. They will become heated and almost start to liquefy.
2. Add other ingredients and 2 Tbsp. of the coconut milk. Process until the mixture forms one big clump.
3. Remove mixture from food processor and stir in 1-2 additional Tbsp. of coconut milk and stir vigorously for desired texture. Pop into an airtight container and store in fridge. Enjoy!
