Method

Preheat the oven to 170°C and line a large baking tray with parchment.

Mix flour, baking powder, and sugar in a bowl, then slowly add eggs to form a dough.

Stir in the chopped hazelnuts and orange zest.

Knead the dough gently on a floured surface and divide it into two portions.

Roll each portion into a 25cm log, place on the tray, and bake for 25 minutes.

Cool logs slightly and cut diagonally into 1.5–2cm thick slices.

Lay slices on the tray and bake for 5–7 minutes per side until golden-brown.

Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
