Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, softened
• ³⁄₄ cup Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 Egg
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Dried blueberries
• 2 tablespoon Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Fold in the dried blueberries.
5. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log, about 10 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the logs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the logs are lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
7. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Transfer the cooled logs to a cutting board and slice them diagonally into 1-inch thick slices.
8. Place the sliced biscotti back onto the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
9. Remove from the oven and let the biscotti cool completely on a wire rack.
10. Once cooled, dust the biscotti with powdered sugar before serving.
