Doesn't get any easier than this Three Ingredient Nutella. Three Ingredients! If you love Nutella and want a healthier option where you can control the ingredients THIS is the recipe for you. Nothing artificial. The healthier alternative to the amazing hazelnut spread!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and toast blanched hazelnuts, stirring often, until light golden brown and fragrant, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool slightly.
Add hazelnuts to a high speed blender (can also use a food processor). Blend on low until a butter is formed, if using a Blendtec twister jar this will only take a matter of seconds.
Heat the chocolate over a double boiler. Once the hazelnut butter is creamy and smooth, add the melted chocolate & sea salt. Blend again until well incorporated.
Transfer to an airtight container or clean jar and store at room temperature for everyday use for up to 2-3 weeks.
Hazelnut roasting time will depend on the size of the hazelnuts. About 15 minutes for small hazelnuts and 20 minutes for large, keep a close eye to ensure they don't burn.
