Lemon Nut Biscotti image

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest
1 cup toasted almonds, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • 1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a large baking sheet. 2 In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. 3 In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add the lemon zest, scraping the inside of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Gradually stir in the flour mixture and the nuts until blended. 4 Divide the dough in half. With moistened hands, shape each piece into a 12 × 2-inch log on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until the logs are lightly browned and firm when pressed in the center. Remove the pan from the oven, but do not turn off the heat. Let the logs cool 10 minutes on the baking sheet. 5 Slide the logs onto a cutting board. Cut the logs into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place the slices on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies are lightly toasted. 6 Have ready 2 large cooling racks. Transfer the cookies to the racks. Let cool completely. Store in an airtight container up to 2 weeks. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

I was looking for a challenge and these biscotti fit the bill. They're a little more time-consuming to make than other cookies, but they're definitely worth the effort.

I'm new to baking biscotti, but these turned out great. They're crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, just like they should be.

I reduced the amount of sugar in this recipe by half and they still turned out great. They're a healthier snack option without sacrificing any flavor.

I made these biscotti gluten-free by using almond flour instead of all-purpose flour. They turned out great! The texture is a little different than traditional biscotti, but they're still delicious.
