Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• ½ tsp almond extract
• 2½ cups almond flour

• 1 tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt

   Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a log about 8 inches long and 2 inches wide on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.

6. 6

   Bake for 25–30 minutes, until logs are firm and lightly golden.

7. 7

   Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).

   Using a serrated knife, slice each log diagonally into ½-inch thick slices.

9. 9

   Place slices cut-side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, and bake for another 10 minutes until crisp and dry.

    Cool completely on a wire rack. Biscotti will continue to harden as they cool.
