Vanilla Almond Biscotti

I've adapted this recipe from Modern Classica Book 2 by Donna Hay. In my opinion this is the easiest and the tastiest biscotti recipe out there. I would even be tempted to call it a no-fail biscotti recipe.



Ingredients

• 2 cups plain flour


• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder


• 3/4 cup sugar


• 3/4 blanched almonds


• 3 eggs


• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract


• 1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Preheat the oven to 325F. Place the flour, baking powder, and sugar in a large bowl; stir to mix. Add the eggs and extract; mix well to form a dough, kneading if necessary.

Shape into a log and flatten slightly. Place on a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper and bake for 35 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely.

Preheat oven to 325F. Slice log into 1/4 inch thick slices. Place back on baking tray and bake for another 10-15 minutes, flipping once if biscotti starts browning. Store in an airtight container.
