I found this on and began making a few changes to suit my own tastes and preferences. The original was for lemon biscotti and can easily be switched back. One point per cookie. Ingredients:
2 cups unbleached flour |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup coarsely ground almonds |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest |
3 tablespoons poppy seeds |
1 egg |
2 egg whites |
1 teaspoon orange extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, ground almonds, poppy seeds, baking powder and baking soda) together in a bowl.
3. Combine the zest, egg, egg whites and extract in a second bowl. Add the dry mixture and mix well. Form the dough into 2 logs each 8-9 inches long.
4. Place logs onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 30 minutes. Let cool slightly and cut diagonally into 1/2 inch slices. Put cut slices soft sides down back on the cookie sheets and bake slices another 8 to 10 minutes until dry.
5. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
