Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw chestnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F (177C).
  • Take a chestnut cutter and place a chestnut right in the middle. Make sure the chestnut is flat and the pointy part of the chestnut is facing you.
  • The thicker wider part of the chestnut should be facing the cutter part of the chestnut cutter. Once they are all cut, place them on a baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes.
  • Ours take 30 minutes but the time will depend on your oven.
  • We take them out of the oven, place them in a bowl that is lined with a lint-free kitchen towel, and cover them.
  • We usually let them rest for 5 minutes and peel them while they are still warm.
