Step : You Will Need:

  • ½ cups (120ml) vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 ¼ cups (810ml) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ cups (120ml) almonds, sliced
  • 1 cups (250ml) sugar
  • 1 tbsp almond extract
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Mixer
  • Parchment Paper
  • Cookie Sheet

Step 1: Pre-Heat

Preheat oven to 375 degrees (190 C, Gas Mark 5)

Step 2: Mix

In a large bowl, combine oil, eggs, sugar, and almond extract, then mix in flour and baking powder. When the batter is well mixed, fold in the almonds.

Step 3: Roll

Divide your dough into two equal pieces, and roll each one into a snake until it's the length of your cookie sheet.

Step 4: Bake Once

Put your dough snakes onto a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet and press it down to about a 1/2 inch thickness. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Remove the biscotti rolls from your baking sheet and put them on a rack to cool.

Step 5: Bake Twice

When your biscotti snakes are cool enough to handle, slice them into 1/2 inch slices, like you're slicing bread. Put the slices back onto the cookie sheet and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes on each side, until both sides of the biscotti are lightly toasted. This recipe makes 3-4 dozen biscotti.

    hi, looks good from this video, tried it step by step and following every ingredients, but came out very dry, the dough could hardly come to one piece, i think too much flours. but rest is fine, taste is ok. i think next time i will just put less flour and try again. still good way to make biscotti .

    Hi Angel, I live in Sydney Australia i looked at every stores but there isn't any almond extract in Australia. There is almond extract in the U.S. Are u from there?

    I used the vanilla extract instead of the almond extract, they were good but I feel they would have been better with the almond extract. Next time I'm going to try to find the almond extract.
