Biscotti di Prato (Tuscan Almond Biscotti)
3 3/4 cups all-purpose unbleached flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
4 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract
1 2/3 cups whole, blanched almonds, toasted lightly
and coarsely chopped
Egg Wash:
1 large egg
1 tsp water
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment blend the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, and the salt until the mixture is combined well.
In a small bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, vanilla extract and almond extract. Add the mixture to the flour mixture, beating until a dough is formed, and stir in the almonds. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, knead it several times, and divide it into fourths. Working on 2 large buttered and floured baking sheets, with floured hands form each piece of dough into a flattish log 11 inches long and 2 inches wide, arrange the logs at least 3 inches apart on the sheets, and brush them with the egg wash. Bake the logs in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 35
minutes and let them cool on the baking sheets on racks for 20 minutes.
On a cutting board, cut the logs crosswise on the diagonal into 3/4 inch slices, arrange the biscotti, cut sides down, on the baking sheet, and bake then in the 350 degree F oven for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until they are pale golden. Transfer the biscotti to racks to cool, and store them in airtight containers.
