Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 piece Egg white
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
- 0.75 cup Raw almonds, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, egg white, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Add the chopped almonds and knead gently to distribute them evenly.
Divide the dough into two equal portions and shape each into a log approximately 10 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the logs are firm to the touch and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes.
Using a serrated knife, carefully slice the logs into 1/2-inch-thick diagonal slices. Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet.
Return the biscotti to the oven and bake for an additional 8–10 minutes on one side. Flip the biscotti over and bake for another 8–10 minutes, or until they are golden and crisp.
Allow the biscotti to cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container. Enjoy dunked in your favorite beverage!
