Instructions
- In a skillet over medium heat, toast the hazelnuts until golden brown and fragrant, about 7 minutes, stirring the nuts occasionally.
- Place the nuts with all the ingredients in a blender or a food processor. Mix to desired consistency. It will take a couple of minutes before the oil from the hazelnuts is extracted, which makes it creamy. The longer you mix, the smoother the spread.

Whole or chopped hazelnuts without their shell. Medium-high heat and the length of time can depend on how big or small your hazelnuts are.
Thank you for your feedback. For many recipes, the total volume yield of the recipe after baking can vary widely depending on how much or how little the dish was reduced during baking. Therefore, listing the number of servings is a more accurate way to give this information to be accurate with the carb count.
We have not tested this recipe with pecans. They would have a very different taste and texture.
