What You Need

Homemade Nutella spread is made using just 7 basic ingredients!

Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method.

• Hazelnuts - hazelnuts are generally bought in packets with the skin on. In this recipe, we roast the hazelnuts lightly in the oven and then gently remove the skins before making the Nutella.
• Icing Sugar - also known as powdered sugar or confectioners sugar.
• Cocoa Powder - use regular unsweetened cocoa powder.
• Coconut Oil - use melted coconut oil (depending on the temperature of where you live, you may need to melt the coconut oil before using).
• Vanilla Extract - or vanilla essence.
• Salt - add a pinch of salt.
• Chocolate - melted. I generally use milk chocolate, however, you can use dark chocolate if you prefer. Choose a quality brand such as Cadburys or Nestle.

Equipment Required

My homemade Nutella recipe is made using a Thermomix machine. This recipe is suitable to all Thermomix models - the TM31, TM5 and TM6.

If you don't have a Thermomix, you can use a blender or food processor instead.

You will also need a flat baking tray, baking paper and an oven for roasting the hazelnuts.

You can use your Thermomix or a microwave to melt the chocolate - see Notes in recipe card.

Once prepared, the Thermomix Nutella should be stored in a sterilised glass jar or tightly sealed plastic container.

Step By Step Instructions

It couldn't be easier to make Nutella in your Thermomix!

Just 3 simple steps... and a few minutes prep time.

Note: Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom for the ingredients quantities and full detailed method.

Step 1 - Roast The Hazelnuts

Line a large flat baking tray with baking paper.

Place the hazelnuts on the tray and roast in a preheated oven for 10 minutes.

TIP: Turn the hazelnuts partway through cooking.

Place the lightly roasted hazelnuts onto a kitchen tea towel. Rub to remove the skins.

Step 2 - Make A Paste

Place the hazelnuts (with the skins removed) into the Thermomix bowl.

Mix until a paste forms.

TIP: Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.

Step 3 - Add The Remaining Ingredients & Blend

Add the remaining ingredients and blend together.

TIP: See Notes in recipe card regarding melting the chocolate.

If your Nutella is too dry or thick for your liking, simply add a little extra melted coconut oil and blend again.

Serving Suggestions

Once you've made your homemade Nutella in the Thermomix... it's time to enjoy it!

Here's a few of my favourite ways to use Nutella:

• On top of pancakes and pikelets;
• Swirled through homemade sweet scrolls;
• In delicious cookies with chocolate chips;
• In super fudgy chocolate brownies;
• Mixed through a creamy cheesecake slice;
• Dolloped onto ice-cream;
• As a sandwich filling (kids favourite!);
• On top of waffles or french toast;
• As the 'sauce' on your favourite sweet pizza;
• As a dipping sauce for strawberries and other fresh fruits.

Expert Tips

• Rub the hazelnuts with a kitchen tea towel to remove the skins. This can be a little messy, so make sure you're close to the sink and a rubbish bin! I find it helpful if the tea towel is slightly damp.
• If you don't like the taste of coconut oil, you can use canola oil or vegetable oil instead.
• If you find that your Nutella is a little too dry or thick for your liking, simply add a small amount of extra oil and blend through.
• Store in a sterilised glass jar or tightly sealed plastic container in the fridge for up to 1 month.
• Allow the homemade Nutella to come to room temperature before using.
• Alternatively, homemade Nutella can be frozen for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost in the fridge before bringing to room temperature to use.
