Thanks for this! I’ll be trying it with Maple Syrup instead of Agave.

As for rubbing the skins off the nuts, I would recommend putting them in a fine meshed sieve/colander after roasting and rubbing them around with your fingers. This works for me with walnuts.

I have made this a few times over the years (one daughter is vegan), and have put the hot roasted hazelnuts onto an old tea towel, folded it in half (or bunch up the edges; the hazelnuts have a tendency to shoot out the sides of the towel) and rub between my hands- most skins come off. I’ve thought of making this recipe with coconut sugar, which is low glycemic index.

Great idea. I just posted this to the Cedar Hill Ranch Facebook page. You can see it on the sidebar of my blog. Have a great day.

Hot damn, I can’t wait to make this stuff. Regular Nutella is so full of nastiness.

This is BRILLIANT. I have been hoping for a dairy free Nutella for years. I never thought of making my own!!!

You have officially gotten me interested. I love Nutella but don’t wanna eat all that sugar (although, I have.) I’m going to find hazelnut oil this weekend, somehow. I have also printed the recipe. A thousand thanks!!!

I READ ONCE, THAT IF YOU PUT THE WARM HAZELNUTS IN A CLEAN DISH TOWEL AND RUB THEM WHILE STILL WARM, THE SKINS COME OFF EASIER. KIND OF LIKE STEAMING THE SKINS SLIGHTLY (LIKE WHEN ROASTING PEPPERS). THIS IS A GREAT RECIPE AND AM ANXIOUS TO TRY IT.

mmmmm….I have made a cake with nutella filling, have a recipe for nutella crepes and have had croissant with nutella on a ferry from Dover to Calais-I’m not sure I’m really wanting to deal with making it myself (and certainly not ready to peel the skins of hazelnuts) but it’s good to know that should a Nutella crisis ever occur, I can break out the Oster and make it myself!
