How to Make Almond Biscotti Recipe

Someone asked about my recipe for how to make homemade almond biscotti. I got the recipe from Joy of Baking .com. It came out tasting great. I want to try another batch with raw sugar since I'm not a fan of white sugar. But at the very least, I got exactly what I wanted. The biscotti are delicious!

Ingredients:
1 cup whole almonds
1 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp sal
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup white sugar
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
  • Toast almonds at 350 degrees F for 8-10 minutes.
  • Let cool and chop coarsely.
  • Set oven at 300 degrees F.
  • In a bowl, lightly beat eggs and extract together. Set aside.
  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Beat until blended.
  • Gradually add egg mixture and beat until dough forms. Add almonds halfway through.
  • With floured hands, divide dough into two logs, 10 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  • Bake on baking sheet for 35-50 minutes, or until firm to the touch.
  • Remove from oven and let cool on wire rack for 10 minutes
  • Transfer logs to cutting board and, using a serrated knife, cut log into slices 1/2 inch thick on the diagonal.
  • Arrange on baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, turn slices over and bake another 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool.
  • Eat your almond biscotti with espresso or tea. Yum!

Looked it up you can use raw sugar, instead of granulated. Use it as you would granulated sugar. This is the case with most baking you can use the raw sugar.

Well, I tried recipe before with raw sugar and it wasn't so tasty. But I don't remember what the recipe was. Hopefully this new one will be better for that.
