How to Make Almond Ginger Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 cup slivered almonds, and 1 tablespoon ground ginger.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth (about 1 minute).
  6. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a log about 1 inch high and 12 inches long.
  7. Place the logs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between them.
  8. Sprinkle the tops of the logs with the remaining ¼ cup granulated sugar.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the logs are puffed and the outsides are firm.
  10. Transfer the logs to a wire rack to cool completely for at least 2 hours.
  11. Once cooled, use a serrated knife to slice the logs into ¼-inch thick biscotti.
  12. Arrange the biscotti slices in a single layer on two parchment-lined baking sheets.
  13. Bake for 10-12 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp, flipping halfway through.
  14. Let the biscotti cool completely on the baking sheets before serving or storing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
