Yield Makes 28

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for work surface
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups blanched almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°. Whisk baking powder, salt, and 1 3/4 cups flour in a medium bowl; set aside. Using an electric mixer on medium-high, beat sugar and butter in a medium bowl until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating to blend between additions and occasionally scraping sides of bowl, until combined. Reduce speed to low, add dry ingredients, and mix just to blend. Fold in almonds.
  • Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead just to bring together, about 2 times. Form into a log about 14" long, 2" wide, and 1" thick. Place log on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake until puffed, cracked in spots, and starting to brown, 25-30 minutes. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack and let log cool.
  • Using a serrated knife, slice log diagonally 1/2" thick. Arrange slices on same sheet; bake until golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Turn and bake until other side is golden brown, 5-10 minutes longer. Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack. Let tozzetti cool.
  • DO AHEAD: Tozzetti can be made 1 week ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
