How to Make Roasted Chestnuts Directions
First, preheat the oven to 400° F.
Use a sharp knife to cut an “X” into the shell of each chestnut. It is important to pierce the shell, or the chestnuts can explode while roasting.
Place chestnuts in a shallow pan in a single layer.
Place a little water in the bottom of the pan.
For a buttery taste, drizzle melted butter over the tops of the chestnuts.
Roast chestnuts in the oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the chestnuts from the oven and put them on a towel. Be careful because they are hot.
Squeeze the towel to crush the shells.
After the chestnuts are warm enough to touch, remove the nuts from the shells.
They are delicious when eaten warm.
Lastly, store any leftover nuts in the refrigerator.
