Cinnamon And Hazelnut Biscotti (Tozzetti Ebraici)

• 3 eggs
• 1 1/4 cups (250 grams) sugar
• 1/2 cup (125 milliliters) olive oil
• zest of 1 lemon
• 3 3/4 cups (470 grams) flour, plus more for dusting
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• pinch of salt
• 2 teaspoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 7 ounces (200 grams) whole peeled hazelnuts or almonds, roughly chopped in half

1. Preheat the oven to 350u0b0 F (180u0b0 C).
2. Beat together the eggs and sugar. Add oil and blend until creamy. Add the lemon zest and the dry ingredients (except for the nuts) and combine to form a dough. If it's too sticky to handle, carefully add a little more flour. Add the nuts towards the end. You should have a soft dough.
3. With floured hands, divide the dough into 6 portions and roll these into 1 inch-thick logs. Place them on 2 baking trays lined with baking paper with plenty of space between them for spreading.
4. Bake 20 minutes. They should appear dry and cooked and are usually cracked along the top but not browned.
5. Remove them from the oven, let cool for several minutes. When cool enough to handle, slice with a heavy, sharp knife (not serrated) into 1/2 inch-thick biscotti. Return the biscotti to the oven to dry out ever so slightly, about 5 minutes.
