¼ tsp sea salt
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp almond extract
Zest of 1 orange
1 cup whole almonds, lightly toasted
Dark chocolate for dipping (optional)
👨🍳 LET’S BAKE
1️⃣ PREHEAT
Set your ILVE oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2️⃣ MIX
Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, vanilla, almond extract and orange zest.
3️⃣ FOLD
Combine the wet and dry ingredients, then gently fold in the toasted almonds.
4️⃣ SHAPE + BAKE
Divide the dough in half and form two flattened logs.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until lightly golden.
5️⃣ SLICE
Cool for about 10 minutes, then use a serrated knife to cut each log diagonally into biscotti.
6️⃣ BAKE AGAIN
Reduce the oven to 300°F (150°C).
Arrange the biscotti cut-side down and bake for 10–12 minutes per side, until crisp and golden.
7️⃣ FINISH
Cool completely and, if you’re feeling indulgent, dip one end in melted dark chocolate. 🍫
Serve alongside a fresh espresso and enjoy a little taste of Italy at home. ☕️🇮🇹
