Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Spread the hazelnuts evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even browning.
Remove the hazelnuts from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, rub the hazelnuts between a clean kitchen towel to remove most of the skins.
In a food processor, pulse the toasted hazelnuts until they are finely chopped.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the ghee until it begins to bubble gently. Add the chopped hazelnuts and stir, allowing them to infuse and brown slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the ghee into another bowl to remove the nuts. Reserve the nuts for garnish or another use.
To the strained ghee, add the lemon juice, sea salt, thyme leaves, and freshly ground black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Serve the Whole30 Glace Noisette warm, drizzling it over your choice of grilled meats or steamed vegetables.
