Why Choose Nutella Plant-Based?

Nutella Plant-Based delivers the same irresistible taste and smooth texture as the classic spread, but it’s vegan-friendly and crafted with quality ingredients. Made with roasted hazelnuts, cocoa, chickpeas, and rice syrup, it’s a great choice for spreading on toast, topping pancakes, or using in your favorite desserts.

Talking About the Ingredients in Nutella Plant-Based

The vegan version of Nutella maintains the brand’s commitment to quality while innovating with plant-based alternatives:

Roasted Hazelnuts: The signature ingredient, giving the spread its nutty richness.
Cocoa: Provides the deep chocolatey flavor we all love.
Chickpeas: Adds a creamy, smooth texture while replacing dairy.
Rice Syrup: A plant-based sweetener that keeps the spread perfectly sweet.

Instructions

Step 1

Roast the Hazelnuts: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 8-10 minutes. Allow them to cool, then rub off the skins using a clean towel.

Step 2

Blend the Hazelnuts: Place the roasted hazelnuts in a food processor or blender and blend until they form a smooth nut butter. This may take 5-7 minutes, so be patient!

Step 3

Add the Remaining Ingredients: Add cocoa powder, rice syrup, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the blender. Blend again until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Adjust the Consistency: If the spread is too thick, add more coconut cream or plant-based milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you achieve the desired consistency.

Step 5

Store and Enjoy: Transfer the spread to a glass jar with an airtight lid and store it in the fridge for up to two weeks. Use it on toast, pancakes, or as a dessert topping.

Note's

Customize Sweetness: Adjust the amount of rice syrup or maple syrup to suit your taste.
Storage: Let the spread come to room temperature before use, as it may thicken in the fridge.
Optional Add-ins: Add a pinch of cinnamon or espresso powder for a flavor twist.
