- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil and honey. Stir until well blended.
Step 3
Add the ground cumin, paprika, sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to the bowl. Mix well to form a spiced glaze.

Toss the raw hazelnuts into the bowl and stir until all the nuts are evenly coated with the glaze.
Step 5
Spread the coated hazelnuts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 12-15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
