Lemon biscotti are an Italian specialty that have become popular in many other parts of the world. This recipe features a lemon drizzle, which adds an extra zing to the already delicious biscotti. These treats are perfect for dipping in coffee or tea and make a great option for breakfast or a mid-day snack. Biscotti can be stored for relatively long periods of time, making them great for baking in large batches to enjoy throughout the week.

Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2.In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and lemon rind until well combined.
3.In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, lemon extract, vegetable oil, and eggs until well combined.
4.Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until well combined to form a dough.
5.Form dough into a 16-inch-long and 2-inch-wide log on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Flatten log to 1/2-inch thickness.
6.Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes or until firm to touch. Cool for 10 minutes.
7.Cut log diagonally into 30 (1/2-inch) slices. Place slices, cut sides down, on baking sheet. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15 minutes. Turn cookies over; bake an additional 15 minutes (cookies will be slightly soft in center but will harden as they cool).
