Homemade Nutella….what an awesome idea! I love Nutella and I put it on everything! Can’t wait to try your homemade version! 🙂
The store-bought variety has dairy in it which is something we avoid so this homemade version looks perfect. Can’t wait to try it!
Wow, it never occurred to me how easy it would be to make my own. Thanks for posting these directions 🙂
Love! Where can I purchase those jars?
Love! Where can I purchase those wonderful jars?
Looks absolutely amazing, Lexi! Add me as another that is curious where you found the awesome jars.
I totally need to make this – we are all Nutella addicts here. And I agree with evryone else… I love those jars!
Yup! Thinking I need to make this pronto… I could totally sit back and scarf this down while watching a movie or put it on toast the next morning. Love the recipe and pics Lexi!
I love nutella. Such a grown up ‘nut butter’! Love the gif 😉
Hello, just had to comment that I think your Nutella looks divine! Well done!
What are the nutritional values?
I woke up this morning dreaming about Nutella. I will be sharing this post on my Fan page tomorrow at 4:00pm. -Sharing Life’s Abundance
I have just made this but as I couldn’t find hazelnuts, went with almonds! Wow! It’s amazing! Tastes incredible… Even my teenage Nutella addict son loves it!
Try it! Thanks for the recipe!
We’re gfcfef and I’ve been missing nutella horribly these last 5 years – THANK YOU!
The jars are preserve jars from Bonne Maman. http://www.bonnemaman.us/about/
Is there an alternative for the coconut oil? Not a fan of anything coconut unfortunately.
Hazelnut oil? For a more authentic Nutella experience. That’s what I’m planning to use anyway as I don’t like coconut oil much.
You could also substitute the sugar and honey with dates.
I’m not sure how this would work with date Jacqueline.
You can buy date butter or just make it yourself. I have tried it and I was amaized. I got the sweetness that I wanted. Instead of coconut palm sugar I substitute it with carob powder. My son loves my homemade Hazelnut spread! 🙂
Just made a half a batch, made my husband who is a Nutella conoisseur try it and he likes it
=)
and this is the kind of Nutella I won’t mind my kid eating spoonfulls of.
I used butter instead of coconut oil and cane sugar instead of coconut palm sugar, but it still tasted terrific.
Great recipe!
I’m so happy to see you’re using coconut palm sugar! What I love most about your recipe is that you didn’t overly sweeten it.
What kind of chocolate chips did you use?
Enjoy Life’s Chocolate Chips. Any will work!
Lexi this looks incredible!! Do you think you could substitute cacoa powder for the cocoa powder?
So glad I found your fabulous site!
I haven’t tried it but I don’t see why not 🙂
Would love to make this for my son. Nutella is his favourite. I hope he doesn’t finish it in one day.
Haay!
Can you give us an idea of approx. how much nutella (volume) comes out of this recipe? We’re planning on giving homemade nutella jars to some friends for Christmas and need to calculate how many hazelnuts to buy 🙂
Thanks!
Making this now. Will update when it is done.
OMG! Amazing! And now, excuse me, I am going to make some Nutella! Yumm!!!!
This was amazing! However, I think that using coconut oil makes it harden and I would prefer it to stay creamy. Perhaps using hazelnut or walnut oil instead of coconut would help?
This looks amazing and perfect for my Nutella obsessed kids. How long will a jar of this last?
This looks amazing! Have you figured out the nutritional information ( such as calories) ?
HI this tastes great but I couldnt get mine to be smooth and melted like in the pictures, it looks like dough? what did i do wrong? 🙁
Add more oil and process longer.
I had no idea I can make Nutella at home. 🙂
I tried it this morning and it was delicious.
Thanks again Lexi, you are such and inspiration!
Amazing! I can’t wait to give it a try.
Thanks for sharing.
Looks yummy. really can’t wait to give it a try.:)
