How to Make Italian Biscotti (Stepwise Photos)

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 200º C.
  2. Take butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and mix with a whisk till light.
  3. Sieve refined flour into the bowl and whisk till no lumps form. Add baking powder, salt and cinnamon powder and whisk well.
  4. Add egg, orange juice and orange zest.
  5. Sieve cornflour into the bowl and knead into a dough. Add milk to bind it better.
  6. Gently divide the dough into 2 equal portions. Flatten and shape each half into a long rectangular, taking care that they do not break.
  7. Sprinkle pistachios and almonds both on top and the bottom of these rectangles. Place them on a greased baking tray keeping sufficient space between them.
  8. Keep the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, checking a few times to ensure they do not burn.
  9. Cool, slice and serve.
