Make your own vegan Nutella! This vegan chocolate hazelnut spread is super easy to whip up. Watch out, because it's seriously addictive!
Place the hazelnuts into the bowl of a food processor fitted with an s-blade. Blend them to a thick paste, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla and salt.
Begin blending the ingredients again. Slowly drizzle in non-dairy milk as needed.
Blend the mixture until smooth, which can take a few minutes, adding add as much milk as you need to reach your desired consistency. Turn the machine off and let it rest a bit every few minutes as needed to avoid overheating.
Taste-test the mixture and add extra maple syrup or salt if desired.
Serve.
*If you can't find hazelnuts that are roasted and peeled, you can roast and peel them yourself using this method.
