Step 1

Preheat the oven to 300F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a food processor, process the hazelnuts and almonds until they resemble coarse crumbs with some larger pieces. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the hazelnut meal, sweetener, cocoa powder and salt.

Step 3

Stir in the hazelnut oil and vanilla extract until the mixture begins to clump together.

Step 4

Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet and press down firmly to help it clump together as it bakes.

Step 5

Bake 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes or so, until beginning to crisp. Turn off the oven and let sit for another 20 minutes or so. Keep a close eye on it to make sure it is not beginning to burn. Let cool completely on the pan.
