She’s shucking nuts (sounds like a good t-shirt),lol.
Another way of making a primal type Nutella is by using raw cocoa powder, stevia extract and coconut milk.
Ooo! Coconut milk! For those who like their chocolate less dark and more milky. Great idea!
delicious! i definitely want to try this!
Ooh, I love this recipe. I bet it would taste great with Adam’s coconut pancakes.
Adam’s pancakes looked awesome, eh? Great idea!! Yum!
Great idea maba… i was wondering what i could eat this with… Great video.
She Rocks.
Oh my gosh! That looks so cool! Thanks!
I LOVE these videos!
Keep em coming.
Umm married?
This is great. I LOVE Nutella. Seriously, if there is a heaven, Nutella, or a Primal equivalent is there.
Nutella is crack…. now we have primal crack. oh yeah!
I cannot wait to try this recipe! Thanks for sharing!
Uh, yum.
…like, just… yum.
Looks delicious – and the primal nutella ain’t bad either.
Some Groks have all the luck!
Bet this would be great on apple slices, too. Must find some hazelnuts.
you can ’shuck’ nuts faster by rolling them over a cooling rack (usually used for cooling cookies after baking them). as long as the holes are smaller than the nuts. just take a handful or two and roll them between your hands and the rack and the skins fall down under the rack and the nuts are shucked!
Yup! Also, you can roll them in a damp towel. I don’t have a cooling rack; but that’s a great suggestion!
Looks SO good. Love that it’s healthy!
I get about 82% fat, 11% carbs and 7% protein with this recipe vs. 49%, 46%, 4% for nutella.
A great recipe!! Thank you.
yum! but i have a ? being newish to primal eating. what would be so terrible about using, say raw honey, asmall amount vs. stevia? i hate the weird fake taste of stevia. and is stevia actually harmless?
Stevia is distilled from a sweet herb and, except for (in some varieties) a tiny tiny amount of vegetable oil or lactose from milk, there’s nothing else in it – more specifically, nothing chemical. The taste you likely don’t like is the licorice. But stevia has been used by primitive societies for years with no ill effects and I’m convinced that it is not only harmless, but is actually healthy. If you buy it, be sure to buy a brand that doesn’t add much to it.
Most primal eaters tend to avoid sugar (including honey). My only problem with honey is that it does affect my insulin levels. So I use stevia. But if you don’t like the licorice taste of stevia, I’d suggest using agave instead of honey, just to avoid affecting your insulin levels; because, after all, you *are* trying to reprogram your genes, right?
Anyone else have thoughts?
