🌰 Roasted Chestnuts 🌰
A Cozy, Heart-Healthy Treat!
Roasted chestnuts are a delicious way to enjoy the season packed with fiber, Vitamin C, antioxidants, and slow-digesting carbs that support energy and heart health.
✨ Easy Recipe (Chef-approved!)
1️⃣ Choose good-quality chestnuts firm, no dents or holes.
2️⃣ Using sharp kitchen scissors, make a small cross-cut on the shell (deep enough to pierce the skin).
3️⃣ Place on a baking tray, cut side up. Roast at 350°F for 25 minutes, then increase to 415°F for another 15 minutes.
4️⃣ For extra flavor and aroma, toss in a few ice cubes at the start of roasting!
5️⃣ Once roasted, transfer to a bowl, cover with a wet kitchen towel, and let rest 10–15 minutes.
6️⃣ Peel while warm and enjoy! 🌰💛
Chestnuts are naturally low in fat, gluten-free, and a lovely way to embrace mindful, seasonal eating.
