Oatmeal Nutella Smoothie

Oatmeal Nutella smoothie is a quick and easy on the go breakfast / after school snack for the kids. 

Store-brought Nutella is loaded with refined sugars and palm oil, so I never buy it. This is made with home made Nutella and you can find the recipe here: Home made Nutella.

Home made Nutella (Hazelnut / Almond Chocolate Spread)

Category: Home made Spreads
Preparation Time: 10-15 mins
Servings: yields around 1 cup

Nutella made with Almonds
Nutella is the popular chocolate spread among the kids. But we dont prefer buying it because it is made with palm oil and loaded with sugar. So I prefer making it at home without any preservatives or refined oils.
Almond Chocolate Spread
For more chocolatey flavour, we can add few chocolate chips or little home made chocolate. 
Nutella made with Hazelnuts
Nutella is made with Hazelnuts and if we didn't have access to those nuts, we can use almonds. I have tried with both hazelnuts and almonds. 
Minion is happy with this Nutella :) 

We can also use peanuts and I have already posted Chocolate Peanut butter recipe here.
We can use this on toasts, breads, crackers, cookies, cakes, chapathis, apples, smoothies or on anything we like to:)
