Delicious Orange Almond Biscotti Recipe for Your Next Treat

Ingredients

Servings:
36
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon orange zest
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

9 steps

  1. Preheat Oven

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

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

    Sifting the flour can help avoid lumps.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add vanilla extract, orange zest, and orange juice.

    Mix thoroughly for a uniform batter.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until combined. Fold in sliced almonds.

    Do not overmix to keep the texture light.
  5. Shape Dough

    Divide the dough into two logs on the baking sheet, flattening them to about 1 inch high.

    Leave space between logs for spreading.
  6. Bake First Time

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.

    Check for doneness by lightly pressing the center.
  7. Cool and Slice

    Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Slice logs diagonally into 1-inch thick pieces.

    Use a serrated knife for clean cuts.
  8. Bake Again

    Place the slices back on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until crisp.

    Keep an eye to prevent burning.
  9. Cool and Dust

    Let biscotti cool completely on a wire rack and dust with powdered sugar if desired.

    Store in an airtight container for freshness.
