Keto Nutella Sugar Free Hazelnut Spread Recipe
Ever since starting this new journey, there has been one food that I haven’t been able to recreate until now. This Keto Nutella Sugar-Free Hazelnut Spread Recipe is amazing on so many levels. I would also call this a win in the Keto world. Everyone should be able to enjoy Nutella in their life and now that can with this delicious recipe.
Keto Nutella Sugar Free Hazelnut Spread Recipe Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups organic hazelnuts
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts
- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan salt
- 1/2 cup Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Keto Nutella Sugar-Free Hazelnut Spread Recipe Instructions
- You will need to roast the nuts. Place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and roast them on 300 degrees for 15 minutes. Your whole house will smell amazing!
- Allow the nuts to cool down for about 10 to 15 minutes. Then try to rub as much of the skins off of the hazelnuts as you can. Don’t worry if you cannot rub all the skins off. Just worry about the peels that can come off. The skins tend to be bitter so I remove as much as possible. The macadamia nuts will go from a light color to a toasted brown color when they are ready (as seen in the photos below).
- Place all of the nuts in a food processor. You will use the pulse button to process these nuts into a spread. The nuts will start off as chunks, then go to a dusty powder but then eventually turn into a peanut butter type consistency once you process them long enough for the oils to naturally release. Don’t be afraid to keep going during the process. The longer you mix them the smoother your spread will be in the end. I’ve attached photos of each step in this process so you can see exactly what I am talking about.
- Next, add the remaining ingredients to the food processor: Cocoa powder, salt, sweetener and coconut oil and continue mixing it until the remaining ingredients have fully combined.
- When it’s done mixing, add the mixture to two small pint sized mason jars and store it in the refrigerator. The ingredients will seem a bit runny after you process it but hardens up a bit in the refrigerator. It’s not so hard that you can’t spread it but it’s not runny either. It’s a perfect consistency!

This spread tastes amazing! It has a nutty goodness that certainly pleases the taste buds. The consistency is not exactly super smooth as the real Nutella. It’s more like an almond butter consistency that is a bit thicker. It’s easy to spread and tastes incredible on a toasted piece of Cloud Bread!
Questions People Ask about Homemade Sugar Free Nutella
Is Keto Nutella Sugar-Free?
Why, yes, of course, this Keto Nutella recipe is sugar-free. When you are on the Keto or low carb diet, it’s important that you stay as sugar-free and carb-free as possible. There aren’t a lot of recipes out there that allow you to do this.
How Do I Store Keto Nutella?
I would recommend getting an airtight jar container that you can store this Keto Nutella in. Being able to store this on the pantry or on the counter can really help you enjoy the softness of it. If you store it in the fridge, it’s going to be hard to get it to spread around. Room temperature is always better to be honest. So, store that Keto Nutella in an airtight container.
Can I Freeze Keto Nutella?
When put in the right container, you can easily freeze Keto Nutella. A lot of people like making this Nutella in big batches and freezing some of it. You’ll just want to have it stored in a container in which it won’t freezer burn. I like to freeze the Nutella flat too, so it’s not taking up a ton of room in the freezer.
What to Serve with Keto Nutella?
Anything that you would enjoy using regular Nutella with, you can use the sugar-free version. Nutella is enjoyed on crackers, candy, sandwiches, cakes, cookies, and anything else you can dream of. Keto Nutella can help you keep everything Keto though, which is great!
Here are a few photos we took while making this amazing recipe.
This is what they looked liked toasted versus raw.
I pulled off as much of the skins from the Hazelnuts as I could but you can see I didn’t get them all.
I want to stress the importance of having a really good food processor. I’ve used this one over and over again and it has never failed me. Talk about money well spent!
Here’s the finished yumminess being poured into a mason jelly jar! YUMMY! We licked every spoon clean!

Hi, it’s it possible to replace the macadamia nuts with something else?
I’m in the UK and haven’t been able to get macadamia nuts for over 6 months.
Thank you
