Cantucci

Step 1

Add salt and baking powder to the sifted flour and stir with a whisk. Beat in the 4 eggs and start kneading the dough. Add the lemon zest, sugar and butter and mix. Pour in the vanilla sugar, add the honey, nuts, raisins and continue kneading the dough until it becomes elastic and clumps together.

Step 2

Dust a work surface with flour, shape the dough into a loaf, divide it into 6 pieces and form baguettes. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment, brush with beaten egg and bake at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

Step 3

Then let them cool a little and cut them into slices. Arrange the slices cut side up and bake at 170 degrees for another 10 minutes.

Step 4

Let the cantucci cool completely and serve. Enjoy!
