Dessert left out May's neighbour's tucked into in naive fashion (8)
I believe the answer is:
jejunely
'dessert left out may's neighbour's tucked into' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'naive fashion' is the wordplay.
'naive' becomes 'jejune' (I've seen this in another clue).
'fashion' becomes 'ly' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'jejune'+'ly'='JEJUNELY'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
