Case study, Nutella supposedly is made up of:
| 55% | sugar |
| 16% | oil |
| 13% | hazelnut |
| 7.8% | milk |
| 7.4% | cocao power |
Low carb alternative could be:
| 8oz | low carb chocolate | |
| 16oz | hazelnut | |
| 8oz | ghee | |
| 3oz | butter power | |
| 8oz | cocoa power | |
| 12oz | allulose or erythritol (maybe a little stevia to taste) | |
| 12g | lecithin | |
| 2-5g | dry or oil-based vanilla flavor, pinch vanillin |
You can not add any water or alcohol based liquids (like vanilla extract) to this or it will seize!
I normally lightly roast the hazelnuts to dry out any water and bring out the flavor.
A malanger is a must to grind down everything. Make sure all the ingredients are in a molten form if possible.
