Pistachio and Raisin Biscotti
Directions
- 1Add all dry ingredients to a bowl: flour, sugar, a pinch of salt, pistachio, raisins, and a generous teaspoon of baking powder. Mix well.
- 2Add two eggs, one teaspoon of vanilla extract, two teaspoons of honey, and a touch of lemon zest to the dry ingredients.
- 3Mix all ingredients together, working the dough until the eggs are fully absorbed and there is no more dry flour.
- 4Place the dough in the fridge to firm up for about half an hour. Turn the oven on at 170°C.
- 5Shape the firm dough directly on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Dust with a touch of flour on top and a little on your hands.
- 6Take your time to shape the dough into a 25cm long and about 9-10cm wide log.
- 7Put the dough straight into the oven and bake it for 20 minutes at 170°C.
- 8After baking, leave it to cool for 15 minutes before cutting into it.
- 9With a sharp knife, cut the baked log into slices about 2 centimeters thick.
- 10Place the slices back on the baking tray and bake them once again for about 10 minutes at 160°C.
