100% unsweetened hazelnut butter is made from ground hazelnuts and is minimally processed. The nuts are ground until smooth, with no sugar added; check the ingredient list if you want to confirm whether anything else is included.
No. 100% unsweetened hazelnut butter is made from hazelnuts without added sugar, while Nutella is a sweetened hazelnut-cocoa spread with other ingredients. The butter tastes nuttier and less sweet, so it may not work as a one-for-one swap in every recipe.
Oil rising to the top is natural: hazelnuts release their own oil, which can separate during storage. Stir the butter thoroughly with a clean, dry utensil before serving; separation alone does not mean it has spoiled.
Usually, refrigeration is not necessary; keep the tightly closed jar in a cool, dark place and follow its storage instructions. Refrigerating it can make the butter firmer and the separated oil harder to mix back in.
Spread it on toast, stir it into oatmeal or yogurt, or blend it into smoothies. Its unsweetened, strong hazelnut flavor also works in sauces and desserts; add fruit or another sweetener if you want a sweeter result.
Yes, you can often use 100% unsweetened hazelnut butter instead of peanut butter in spreads, smoothies, and many recipes. It has a distinct hazelnut flavor and may be thinner or oilier, so adjust the quantity if the texture changes.
Yes, it adds hazelnut flavor and richness to cookies, cakes, and other baked goods. Because it contributes fat and has no added sugar, replacing all the butter or sweetener in a recipe may change both its texture and sweetness.
No, 100% unsweetened hazelnut butter has no added sugar by definition. Its naturally occurring carbohydrates are still present, so “unsweetened” does not mean carbohydrate-free; check the jar’s ingredient list for the particular product.
It can be a nutritious choice, providing unsaturated fats, vitamin E, and fiber. It is also energy-dense, so it works well as part of a meal or snack when you use a portion that suits your needs.
Yes, you can freeze 100% unsweetened hazelnut butter in a tightly sealed, freezer-safe container. Leave a little room at the top, thaw it in the refrigerator, and stir well afterward because the texture or oil separation may change.

100% unsweetened hazelnut butter is made by grinding hazelnuts, often roasted, until they release their oils and form a smooth or slightly textured spread. With no added sugar, its flavour is richly nutty and pleasantly toasted. Spread it on toast, swirl it into porridge or yoghurt, or use it in baking and sauces. It pairs especially well with fruit, dark chocolate and oats, and can add a distinctly hazelnut note to both sweet and savoury dishes.
It is energy-dense and rich in unsaturated fats, with fibre and vitamin E among its nutritional highlights. A tablespoon is an easy way to add flavour and staying power to breakfast, but a modest portion works well if you are watching overall energy intake. Stir the jar before serving if the natural oils have separated.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
