🥘 Ingredients

11 items

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 0.75 cup raisins
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 2 tablespoons milk (for brushing)

📝 Instructions

12 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.

4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula until a dough forms.

5. Fold in the raisins and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

6. Lightly flour your hands to prevent sticking, then divide the dough in half. Shape each portion into a log approximately 10 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.

7. Brush the tops of the logs lightly with milk to help them achieve a golden crust during baking.

8. 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 cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.

9. Using a sharp serrated knife, carefully slice the logs diagonally into ½-inch thick slices. Arrange the slices cut side down on the baking sheet.

10. Return the sliced biscotti to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes on each side, or until crisp and golden brown.

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

12. Once cooled, store the biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
