Fruited Lemon Biscotti




Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




1/4 cup whole lemon verbena leaves
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract

1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp coarse salt
1 cup chopped dried or candied fruit



Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, whiz together lemon verbena leaves and sugar until leaves are ground. Transfer to a medium bowl and whisk in eggs and vanilla until blended. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt; stir in dried fruit. Fold into egg mixture with a rubber spatula until incorporated. Dough will be sticky.

Divide dough in half. Wet your hands and shake them off, but don’t dry them. On a parchment paper lined baking sheet, press each half into a log that measures 11 inches long by 2 inches wide; press down on top until it’s 1/2 inch high. Leave about 2 inches between logs.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until golden. Remove from oven; lower heat to 325 degrees. Cool pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Transfer logs to a cutting board and cut crosswise with a serrated knife into 3/4 inch slices. Return slices, standing up, to the parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced slightly apart. Bake 15 minutes more, until crisp. Transfer to wire racks to cool.
