Ingredients:
Quantity | Ingredient |
---|---|
1 cup | Flour |
3/4 cup | Sugar |
1/8 tsp | Salt |
1/2 tsp | Baking powder |
4 tbsp | Butter |
1 | Egg |
1 tbsp | Orange zest |
1/2 cup | Powdered sugar |
1 1/2 tbsp | Orange juice |
Directions:
-
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Stir until well combined.
-
Incorporate Butter: Add the butter to the dry mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, blend the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
-
Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly. Then, add the orange zest to the beaten egg and mix until combined.
-
Form Dough: Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. Knead the dough briefly until it comes together smoothly.
-
Shape Biscotti: Roll the dough into a 12-inch cylinder on a lightly floured surface. Place the cylinder on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet.
-
Bake First Round: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Bake the biscotti cylinder for 30 minutes, or until lightly golden and set.
-
Cool and Slice: Allow the baked biscotti cylinder to cool slightly. Then, using a sharp knife, cut the cylinder on the bias into 1/2-inch wide slices.
-
Bake Again: Lay the sliced biscotti pieces on the parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown.
-
Prepare Glaze: In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and orange juice until smooth.
-
Finish and Serve: Once the biscotti have cooled slightly, brush the tops with the orange glaze. Allow them to cool completely before serving. Enjoy your delicious Orange Biscotti with a cup of tea or coffee!
