How to Make Homemade Hazelnut Butter
Ingredients
- 500 g Hazelnuts raw
Instructions
- DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
- Spread hazelnuts on a baking tray and roast for 8-10 minutes. Until slightly browned and the skins are blistered a little.
- Allow to cool for 3-4 minutes on the tray. Wrap the hazelnuts in a kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove as much loose skin as possible. Remove skinned hazelnuts and repeat the process with unskinned hazelnuts. Note: it's pretty hard to remove all the skin, try to remove as much as possible but it's fine if you left with some skin on. Let cool completely.
- Place hazelnuts into the blender, add salt (optional) and blend until smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides as necessary. Note: At the beginning it seems like it’s not blending well, but you have to be patient. First it will be crumbly, then it will form a paste, then it will be smooth and creamy. All the process takes about 5-15 minutes (depending on your blender/food processor).
- Transfer the peanut butter to an airtight container or to a mason jar and store in the refrigerator.
