hazelnuts

Small brown nuts

Hazelnuts are the edible nuts produced by hazel trees, enclosed in a hard brown shell within a leafy husk.

They have a rich, slightly sweet flavor and are eaten raw, roasted, or ground into spreads and pastes—most famously in Nutella.

Hazelnuts appear in baked goods, chocolates, and confections, and their oil is used in cooking and cosmetics.

They are also called filberts, particularly in American English.
