| 1. | Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. |
| 2. | In a small saucepan, bring the cranberries and apple cider to a boil. Remove from heat, and let cool for 10 minutes. |
| 3. | In a large skillet, toast the hazelnuts over medium heat until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool and generously rub with a clean towel to remove the skins, then coarsely chop. |
