Keto Nutella Inspired Smoothie Recipe
This is my take on the best Ketogenic Nutella Inspired Shake. Let me tell you how I make it! Ingredients are relatively simple and clean. Cocoa powder, roasted hazelnuts and unsweetened almond milk is our (healthy) spin on chocolate-hazelnut. “The best part: all you need is a high-speed blender, a measuring cup and a serving glass. High in healthy fats, this smoothie is low net carbs. It also provides you with sustained energy all day long.

Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Blend Hazelnuts: Place roasted hazelnuts or hazelnut butter in a high-speed blender and blend until they become smooth. This is your nutty smoothie base.
- Add Cocoa & Sweetener: Whisk in unsweetened cocoa powder and sweetener of choice. This does the trick for rich, chocolatey Nutella flavor without sugar.
- Pour in Liquids: Stir in unsweetened almond milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Those three ingredients make the smoothie light and super creamy.
- Add Ice Cubes: Add a few ice cubes to cool and adjust the consistency, for that chilled experience.
- Blend Smoothly: Mix well until you get a smooth and silky consistency.
- Serve & Enjoy: Pour into a glass, garnish with more whipped cream or crushed hazelnuts if desired and enjoy while fresh.
Notes
- For extra creaminess, go with cold coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
- Toss in a scoop of unsweetened protein powder, and it’s also a post-workout drink.
- Its great if you toast the hazelnuts lightly before blending – for an even more Nutella experience!
- If you prefer it sweeter, just add in the sweetener by taste little by little.
- You can also freeze almond milk into cubes in advance for an icy texture.
