This document provides recipes for 3-ingredient homemade Nutella using hazelnuts, cocoa powder, and one of three sweeteners: maple syrup, dates, or coconut sugar. The recipes require roasting hazelnuts for 15 minutes, blending them into a butter in a food processor for 10 minutes, then adding the cocoa powder and sweetener and blending for another minute while gradually adding water to reach the desired consistency. The amount of water needed depends on the sweetener used.

1 cup hazelnuts 1½ tbsp cacao/cocoa powder ¼ cup maple syrup (agave or coconut nectar also work) water (I usually use about ¼ cup) Nutella With Dates 1 cup hazelnuts 1½ tbsp cacao/cocoa powder 12 dates water (I usually use ⅔-1cup) Nutella With Coconut Sugar 1 cup hazelnuts 1½ tbsp cacao/cocoa powder ¼ cup + 2 tbsp of coconut sugar ½ tsp vanilla (optional) pinch of salt (optional)
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 360F/180C.
2. Place hazelnuts in a baking dish in single layer and roast for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. 3. Remove hazelnuts from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes. 4. Place hazelnuts in food processor and blend for 10 minutes until they turn into hazelnut butter. I usually stop my food processor every minute or so to give it a break and scrape the sides. 5. *IF USING DATES* Soak dates in hot water for 5-15 minutes depending on how soft they are. 6. Add cacao powder and the sweetener (maple syrup/soaked dates/coconut sugar) to the food processor. Blend for about a minute. 7. While the food processor is still running, gradually add water to reach the desire consistency. Blend for 2 minutes or so until the mixture is smooth. 8. *IMPORTANT* The amount of water you need will depend on what sweetener you're using. I usually add ¼ cup of water when I make Nutella with maple syrup, ⅔-1 cup if I'm using dates, and NO WATER if I'm using coconut sugar.
