Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup honey
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup slivered almonds
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven: Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and honey until smooth. Blend in the vanilla extract along with the vegetable oil until well incorporated.

4. Combine the Mixtures: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms.

5. Add the Almonds: Gently fold the slivered almonds into the dough.

6. Shape the Dough: Move the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and form it into a long, slightly flattened log, about 10 inches in length.

7. First Bake: Place the log in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until it's golden and firm to the touch.

8. Slice the Biscotti: Take the log out of the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes. After that, slice it into 1-inch wide pieces using a serrated knife.

9. Final Bake: Lay the slices back on the baking sheet and return them to the oven for another 10-12 minutes, turning the pieces halfway through, until they are crisp and golden.

10. Cool and Enjoy: Allow the biscotti to cool fully on a wire rack before enjoying them.
