Instructions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Fold in the flour and hazelnuts, mixing just enough to evenly combine. Form into 1/2 inch by 3 inch sticks, and place onto a baking sheet 1 inch apart.
Bake in preheated oven until brown around the edges, about 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Recommended wine: Sparkling Wine, Sparkling Rose
Antipasti works really well with Sparkling Wine and Sparkling rosé. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. The Ferrari Perle with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 38 dollars per bottle.
