Raw Nutella Milk

I’ve noticed a distinct lack of nutella-ness in my life, lately so I was inspired to create my own recipe with hazelnuts and chocolate, after Froothie sent me their latest powerful blender.

As soon as I opened the instruction manual and saw there was a “nut milk” setting AND a nut milk bag – I knew exactly what I was going to try first. Nutella milk! Scroll down for the full recipe.

THE RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

1 cup raw hazelnuts preferably organic soaked overnight or at least 6 hours in 3 cups water
Another 3 cups filtered water
2 tbsp raw cacao powder
2 tsp vanilla extract
5 medjool dates pitted

INSTRUCTIONS

Drain the hazelnuts and rinse them well.
Add to a high powered blender, along with the filtered water cacao powder, vanilla and dates.
Blender until smooth.
Prepare a large bowl or jug and place a nut milk bag or muslin / cheesecloth on top. Pour the milk through and squeeze out as much of the liquid as you can until you just have pulp left in the bag / cloth.*
Pour into glasses or bottles and enjoy! The milk can be kept in a bottle or container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
