Btw, it's crazy to know how easy it is to make all the foods we love at home, and it's healthier and cheaper.

[@Downshiftology]

Making it at home is so easy and with fresh ingredients 😊

[@UncleJewnyer]

@@hautecouture2228 well I grow my own hazelnuts. So that's not a problem

[@rockinathens]

@F a Not really, given the quality of the ingredients. Nutella has 13% nuts, whereas your own healthy version 50%. You are comparing apples with oranges

[@rockinathens]

@F a If you put 50% sugar in your own version, i think it will be definitely cheaper :)

[@rockinathens]

@F a Maybe I did, but it depends on how exactly you value your time. For me it's more fulfilling making such alternative and healthy options compared to watching TV or series. And we are talking about a 5 min process here, not something complicated.

[@makayla2380]

All the comments: Real Nutella is terrible for you, it's like 90% sugar and fat! Me: *slowly puts jar of Nutella and spoon away...*

[@evibot4718]

Lol

[@roosa8159]

Same

[@takoyaki7197]

Are you sure bout that

[@daniby9894]

I don't know what Ferrero put on their American market, but I heard that Nutella doesn't taste the same like in Italy and it seems it also tastes sweeter, at least to some friends of mine that tasted it. Overall I think this recepie is pretty good, I'm gonna try it out, but I think I'll be replacing half of the cocoa with dark chocholate (it'll make it thicker and easier to spread, plus chocholate is chocolate...)and I'll add just one spoon of oil, just to help emulsifing it all better, but there are hazelnut chocholate spreads in Italy (like Crema di Novi which I find the best) that contains 45% of hazelnuts (Italian Nutella only 13%), isn't that much sweet and tastes simply awesome!

[@oompaloompa9139]

You know you'll still die one day, don't you. Even if you never have nutella in your life. Don't forget to enjoy the ride a little. :)

[@GinaMatsoukas]

This is dangerously easy! ;)

[@Downshiftology]

Haha, yes it is! :) x

[@My2Cents1]

I made this, and it's amazing. Although, I recommend also grinding your salt with a mortar and pestle, so you get a super fine salt powder. My first try ended up occasionally "crunchy" from a LOT of undesolved salt crystals. Did not taste great either to suddenly have a burst of salty flavor. In my second try I also exchanged half the amount of coconut sugar with powder sugar.

[@navz123]

She already said to powder the sugar in the grinder for a smoother consistency

[@amazingrace4u]

Maybe even dissolving in a bit of water. Thanks for the tip!

[@godschild5587]

​@@amazingrace4u not water cause oil an water don't mix smoothly

[@godschild5587]

grind the salt and sugar in fine powder

[@muffemod]

The nutella sold in stores is over 50% sugar. !__!

[@azizbelkharmoudi2564]

Plus trans fat and preservatives chemicals

This too in case you didnt understood.

[@ivantalafuk4505]

Very interesting recipe and it's definitely a healthy alternative over store bought chocolate spreads such as Nutella but the key of making a healthy chocolate spread is to make it sweet and enjoyable without adding too much calories, in this case a lot of unecessary calories come from coconut sugar and coconut oil. Adding stevia or one banana will definitely change the taste, but it will be much safer calorie-wise, yet there will be enough sweetness to balance the bitterness of cacao powder.

[@afreenbasheer3831]

Ivan Talafuk what about adding dates to the mix for sweetness?

[@dwarfer2309]

Do you have to add oil the hazelnuts looked pretty liquid/runny with out the need to add oil

[@Downshiftology]

You will need oil to keep the moist consistency

[@patanella2788]

true otherwise it’d be nutella butter which isn’t a bad thing if you think about it...i’m wondering though, with this recipe does the oil separate and sit at the top?

[@daniby9894]

Dwarfer230 If you don't want it runny, try cocoa butter or substitute half of the cocoa with dark chocholate. It should improve the consistency.

[@MelanieMonrose]

Dwarfer230 just add less oil

[@joannakromer5223]

Thank you for this video! My kids love Nutella so much and eat almost everyday. So I’ve been wondering how I can replace this with healthy one.

I made this recipe using my fairly old Vitamix. I worried I would burn out the engine. Also the nuts didn't turn creamy like in your demonstration.

Maybe you could do a video on good quality towels/ washcloths etc and what types of tools/cleaning supplies you like to use. 🧽🧼🚰 Food processor - I’m slowly replacing my kitchen tools with many of the products you are using.
