Rawtella
Not gonna lie, back in the day, Nutella was one of my fave foods- I would eat it straight out of the jar (religiously) and would regularly have it in my school sandwiches- and to be frank, if nutella was a superfood, I would probably have been the most healthy fetus kid out there. But sadly to say, it’s not as healthy as we all wish it could be and in reality the majority of the spread is refined, white sugar (but of course, everything can be eaten-within moderation). But if only there could be a healthier alternative to the classic nutella spread… and BAM, here we have ‘rawtella’. Now, I know there are many versions of rawtella out there online, so I decided to give this ‘rawtella’ a try. I looked online for some inspiration on which ingredients to use to get that chocolaty taste and the finished product turned out better than expected, could eat this by the barrel! Below you’ll find how this lovely rawtella spread was created:
Ingredients:
- 150g hazlenuts (about 1 cup)
- 2 tbsp cacao powder
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- ¼ cup water
Method:
1. Add all ingredients in a food processor and blend on high for about 30 mins or until a smooth, spread texture forms- this may take longer than expected, the trick is to be patient (which was pretty hard for me because the mixture smelt so good and I just wanted to have a taste of it!). Enjoy!
