Nutella Hazelnut Bar

This recipe yields 6 eggless portions. Loaded with Nutella and hazelnuts, these bars are definitely drool worthy.

Nutella Hazelnut Base

Method for Base

• Preheat the oven at 180˚C (OTG mode: upper rod + lower rod + fan). Grease and line the square ring with oil & butterpaper. Place in a baking tray.
• In a mixer pulse oats to a fine powder. Now pulsate hazelnuts in the mixer separately, making sure it has a coarse texture and not a fine powder texture.
• In a bowl, sieve flour, cocoa powder, salt and mix. Add in oats flour, hazelnut flour and mix everything well.
• In a separate bowl mix coconut oil and Nutella together. Fold in the dry ingredients and mix using your hands as the dough would be dry.
• Now press the dough in the lined square ring and bake at 180˚C (OTG mode: upper rod + lower rod + fan) for about 12 – 15 minutes.

Nutella Hazelnut Ganache

Method for Ganache

• In a microwave, melt dark couverture chocolate and then add in nutella, mix well.
• In another bowl, warm cream and butter a little. Then add it to the chocolate nutella mix. Keep aside for further use.

Assembly

• Once the hazenut nutella base cools down, spread nutella hazelnut ganache over it.
• Now garnish with chopped roasted hazelnuts, and freeze it for 1 – 2 hours or until set.
• Lastly using a serrated knife, cut it into six equal bars of dimension 2*3 inch.
