Frequently Asked Questions About Pure Hazelnut Spread
How do you eat Pure Hazelnut Spread?
Pure Hazelnut Spread works on toast, stirred into porridge or yogurt, or paired with apple and banana. You can also blend it into smoothies or spoon it into sauces; its naturally rich hazelnut flavor works in both sweet and savory dishes.
Why does oil separate in Pure Hazelnut Spread?
Oil rises to the top of Pure Hazelnut Spread because it contains only ground hazelnuts, without emulsifiers to keep the mixture uniform. This is normal, not a sign of spoilage; stir the oil back in thoroughly before serving.
Does Pure Hazelnut Spread need to be refrigerated?
No, Pure Hazelnut Spread does not usually need refrigeration. Keep it tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Refrigerating it can make the spread firmer and harder to stir, though it may be useful in a warm kitchen.
Is Pure Hazelnut Spread the same as Nutella?
No, Pure Hazelnut Spread is made from hazelnuts alone, while Nutella is a sweetened cocoa-and-hazelnut spread with additional ingredients. Pure Hazelnut Spread tastes more strongly of hazelnuts and is not as sweet, so recipes may need extra sweetener.
How do you make Pure Hazelnut Spread at home?
To make Pure Hazelnut Spread, process roasted hazelnuts in a powerful food processor until they turn from crumbs into a smooth paste. Scrape down the sides as needed; the nuts release their own oil, so added oil is not necessary.
How long does Pure Hazelnut Spread last after opening?
Pure Hazelnut Spread can keep for a while after opening when sealed and stored in a cool, dry place, but its exact shelf life depends on the product and storage conditions. Use a clean, dry spoon and discard it if it develops a rancid smell or taste.
Can you use Pure Hazelnut Spread instead of peanut butter?
Yes, Pure Hazelnut Spread can replace peanut butter in many toast, smoothie, and baking recipes. It has a distinct hazelnut flavor, so the result will taste different; because natural spreads can vary in thickness, adjust liquids if a batter seems too stiff.
Is Pure Hazelnut Spread healthy?
Pure Hazelnut Spread is a minimally processed food made from whole hazelnuts, with no added sugar or other ingredients. It provides protein, fiber, and unsaturated fats, but its rich texture makes it easy to use more than intended.
Can you bake with Pure Hazelnut Spread?
Yes, Pure Hazelnut Spread can be added to cookies, cakes, and brownie batters or used in fillings. Stir it first if oil has separated, and remember that it is unsweetened, so a recipe designed for sweetened chocolate spread may need adjusting.
Can Pure Hazelnut Spread be frozen?
Yes, you can freeze Pure Hazelnut Spread in a tightly sealed, freezer-safe container, leaving a little room for expansion. Thaw it in the refrigerator or at room temperature, then stir it well because the texture and oil distribution may change.

What is Pure Hazelnut Spread?
Pure hazelnut spread is made by grinding hazelnuts, often roasted, until they release their oils and become smooth enough to spread. With no other ingredients added, its flavour comes entirely from the nuts. Hazelnuts are closely associated with Turkey’s Black Sea region, as well as being grown in other parts of the world.
It has a rich, creamy texture and a distinctly nutty taste, which can be more or less toasted depending on how the hazelnuts are prepared. Enjoy it on toast, stirred into porridge, or with sliced fruit as a snack. It is mostly fat, with some protein and fibre. If oil gathers on top, stir the spread before using; fruit or plain yoghurt makes a simple pairing without masking its flavour.
