Toasted Almond
Quaresimali - Lenten Almond Biscuits
Ingredients
1 pound natural (*unblanched) almonds
1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon double-acting baking powder
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs, beaten lightly an egg wash made by beating together 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons milk
Preparation
Toast the almonds in jelly-roll pan in a preheated 375F oven for 10 minutes and let them cool. In a blender or food processor grind fine one fourth of the almonds with 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar and transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
Stir in the flour, the remaining 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, the cinnamon, and the baking powder, add the butter, and stir the mixture until it is combined.
Stir in the remaining almonds, chopped coarse, and the eggs and knead the dough in the bowl until it is combined.
Halve the dough and with floured hands form each half into a 15-by-4 inch rectangle.
Transfer the rectangles with spatulas to buttered and floured baking sheets, brush them well with the egg wash, and bake them in the upper third of a preheated 375F oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and a skewer comes out clean.
Cut the rectangles crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices and let the slices stand in the turned off oven for 15 minutes. Transfer the slices to racks and allow them to cool.
Biscuit making tip
A gentle touch is important! Handle the dough and the biscuits as little as you can. You don't want gluten to develop and you want the fat to stay cold until the biscuits bake, so keep your hands well out of the way! Try to imagine that you are handling very fragile objects during the whole process.
