Ingredients:

1/3 cup hazelnuts
3 oranges
1/3 cup honey
Oranges in warm honey syrup

Oranges in warm honey syrup is a delightful and simple dessert that combines the natural sweetness of oranges with the rich, luscious flavor of honey. Adding in hazelnuts gives a perfect balance of texture and a nutty undertone, making this a wholesome and satisfying treat.

Instructions:

1. Toast the Hazelnuts:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread the hazelnuts in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fragrant, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
- Once cool, rub the hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel to remove most of the skins. Then, roughly chop the hazelnuts and set aside.
2. Prepare the Oranges:
- Peel the oranges, making sure to remove all the white pith.
- Cut the oranges into segments, removing any seeds. You can also cut the oranges into rounds if you prefer.
3. Make the Honey Syrup:
- In a small saucepan, gently heat the honey over low heat until it becomes warm and starts to thin out slightly. Be careful not to let it boil, as honey can burn easily.
4. Combine:
- Place the orange segments (or rounds) in a serving bowl.
- Drizzle the warm honey evenly over the oranges.
- Sprinkle the toasted and chopped hazelnuts over the top.
5. Serve:
- You can serve the oranges immediately while the honey is still warm, or let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- This dish can be enjoyed as a light dessert, a breakfast topping over yogurt, or even as a sweet snack.

Tips:

- Use fresh, juicy oranges for the best flavor.

- Toast the hazelnuts lightly to enhance their flavor before adding them to the recipe.

- Serve the dessert warm for the best experience, though it can also be enjoyed chilled.

Oranges in warm honey syrup is a versatile and easy-to-make dessert that is sure to impress. Its combination of sweet honey, citrusy oranges, and crunchy hazelnuts creates a harmonious and decadent treat that can be enjoyed on any occasion.
