Ingredients

  • 400 g self raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup oil
  • 4 eggs
  • the juice of 2 lemons

Steps

  1. Whip the eggs until very thick. Add sugar, oil, vanilla, baking powder, and lemon juice, and stir until combined.
  2. Slowly fold in flour with a wooden spoon, continually adding until you have a very thick batter (you may need more or less flour).
  3. On a large flat surface, such as a cutting board or plate, sift the powdered sugar.
  4. Using a teaspoon, scoop walnut-sized balls of batter onto the powdered sugar, and roll each into an oval.
  5. Transfer cookies to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and cover with a single layer of parchment.
  6. Place pans into an oven preheated to 200°C (392°F).
  7. Bake for 5–15 minutes, until biscotti begin to turn golden.
  8. Cool completely.
