How to Make Almond Lemon And Anise Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the lemon zest, lemon extract, and anise extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in the almonds.
  7. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  8. Place the log on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Bake for 30 minutes.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  11. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
  12. Using a serrated knife, slice the log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  13. Arrange the slices, cut-side down, on the baking sheet.
  14. Bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  15. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
