1 lb fresh chestnuts
Instructions
- Rinse and dry the fresh chestnuts.
- Score an ‘X’ on the flat side of each chestnut using a sharp knife. This helps release steam and makes them easier to peel.
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C).
- Place the scored chestnuts in the air fryer basket, flat side up.
- Cook for about 12-15 minutes, checking occasionally to prevent burning.
- Allow the chestnuts to cool before peeling and enjoying.
Notes
- Be sure to score the chestnuts well to prevent them from exploding in the air fryer.
- Adjust the cooking time based on the size of the chestnuts and your specific air fryer.
- Enjoy these roasted chestnuts as a healthy snack, or use them in a variety of dishes.
