Easy Homemade Hazelnut Coffee Creamer Recipe (1)

Every hostess has their weaknesses and their strengths. My weakness is that my game plan usually falls apart somewhere between dinner and dessert and coffee. I make dessert ahead of time and I even have the coffee prepped, but I get lost in conversation during dinner and forget to actually make the coffee. Every.single.time. Fortunately, I have awesome friends who remind me when I forget to make the coffee and don’t mind pitching in to help get me back on track. I have forgotten to make the coffee so many times that one of the first things I say to my friends Marc and Colleen when they walk in the door is, “Remind me to make the coffee!”

The Keurig should make our daily routines a little bit more lively. I have been in the habitof just buying one large package of medium roast coffee. I wanted to explore more flavors, but I was concerned about keeping multiple varieties of coffee fresh. Now we can experiment with different flavors ofK-Cup Packs and K-Carafe Packs without worrying about them going stale. Keurig offers 400 beverage varieties from 60 brands, so I am going to have fun trying to find a favorite.

I asked my daughter, who is on break from college, what coffee she wanted to try first and without hesitation she said Hazelnut. I decided to make Homemade Hazelnut Coffee Creamer to go with her coffee. Since I had never had hazelnut creamer before, my daughter served as my taste tester and let me know when it was perfect.My husband and I decided we needed to give Hazelnut Creamer a try to see what all the hoopla was about and discovered a new favorite creamer!

    All Creamers have GMO, we used Coffee mate and found out that all store bought creamers have GMO.

    How long would this keep for?

    Can you just use half n half for both milks? then add syrup?

    Reply

    • Alea Milham says

      I don’t think it would taste as good. Sweetened condensed milk is sweetened, half n half is not. I can not recommend a ratio of syrup to half n half without creating a new recipe. Also using syrup and half n half would be more expensive than this recipe.
