Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350F 175C
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt
Stir in the toasted almonds
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms
Divide the dough in half
On a lightly floured surface, shape each half into a log, about 12 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide
Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the logs are firm to the touch and lightly golden
Remove the logs from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes
Reduce the oven temperature to 325F 165C
Using a serrated knife, carefully slice the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices
Place the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet and return to the oven
Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until they are crisp and golden
Remove from the oven and let the biscotti cool completely on a wire rack
Once cooled, the almond biscotti are ready to be enjoyed or stored in an airtight container
