Raw Chocolate Hazelnut Spread

By SpartyGreenMom

Ingredients

• 1 cup hazelnuts (filberts)
• 2 tablesspoons coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons agave
• 1 tablespoon cacao powder
• 1-2 tablespoons filtered water (as needed)

Preparation

Step 1

Put the hazelnuts in a food processor and process until a butter forms. Scrape down the sides and mix the crumbs with the butter at the bottom as it goes until it is all smooth and creamy. Then add the coconut oil and the agave and process until well mixed. Add the cacao powder and mix well. Don't use too much cacao powder because it makes the butter crumbly and takes away from the "spread" factor. Add water, if needed (I needed it because I put one HEAPING tablespoon of cacao ... oops!).

For the crepes:

Spread the chocolate hazelnut butter onto the inside of the crepe then fill with sliced banana and strawberries. Roll like a burrito then cover with more bananas and strawberries. Drizzle with maple syrup or agave.
