Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F).
Spread the raw hazelnuts evenly in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the hazelnuts for 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
Check the hazelnuts frequently during the last few minutes to avoid burning. The hazelnuts are ready when their skins darken slightly, they become golden brown, and they emit a fragrant nutty aroma.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the hazelnuts cool for a few minutes until they are safe to handle.
To remove the skins (optional), place the slightly cooled hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel and rub them together gently. Most of the skins will flake off, though it's okay if some remain.
Allow the hazelnuts to cool completely before using in recipes or enjoying as-is.
