Almost everyone loves Nutella, but it cannot be denied that it is not the healthiest snack. The homemade white version, however, tells a different story. You can indulge in such a sweet cream without any guilt.

It doesn't have as much sugar as the original, and you won't find any palm oil. Homemade white Nutella is largely based on a true treasure of North American orchards - apples. To keep it from being too plain, white chocolate is added to the mix. This simple recipe will allow you to enjoy a delicious, healthy, homemade sweet cream all year round.

The ingredient list is short, and the preparation is quick. Tasty apples can be bought all year round, so you can make white Nutella whenever you're in the mood for sweets. Gradually add sugar, as the sweetness of the apples might be enough.

Ingredients:

                  
  • 2 kg of apples (e.g., Antonovka, Grey Pippin)
  • 400 g of white chocolate
  • 240 ml of water
  • 80 ml of sugar

Method of preparation:

                      
  1. Peel the apples, remove the seed cores, and chop them into small cubes.
  2. Transfer the chopped apples to a blender and blend them into a smooth puree, adding a cup of water.
  3. Transfer the apple puree to a pot and add sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until the mixture thickens and acquires a jam-like consistency.
  4. Break the white chocolate into smaller pieces and add to the cooking apple puree. Stir gently until the chocolate is completely melted and combined with the apples.
  5. Transfer the hot mixture to sterilized jars and seal tightly. Once cooled, store in the refrigerator.

You can enhance the flavour of the Nutella by adding a pinch of cinnamon, vanilla extract, or lemon zest. Perfect for dessert, great for pancakes, crepes, waffles, and even layering cakes. Enjoy!
