Strawberry Biscotti with Lemon Glaze
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped strawberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Biscotti Dough
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 2: Mix in Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine eggs, vanilla extract, chopped strawberries, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Whisk until well combined.
Step 3: Add Dry Ingredients to the Biscotti Dough
Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Step 4: Shape the Biscotti Dough into Logs and Bake
Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a log about 12 inches long, and place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
Step 5: Cut the Biscotti Logs and Add the Lemon Glaze
Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Slice each log into 1/2-inch thick slices, place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until crispy. Meanwhile, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice to make the glaze.
Step 6: Dip the Biscotti Slices in Lemon Glaze
Dip each biscotti slice into the lemon glaze and serve.
Note: This recipe generates a strawberry-flavored biscotti with a tangy lemon glaze.
