Mandelbread, Orange - pareve

Posted by : Alyse Morris

 1 c. almonds
 1 medium seedless orange
 2 eggs
 3/4 c sugar
 1/2 c oil
 2 tsp baking powder
 2 3/4 c. flour
 
 
  Chop almonds coarsely, about 12 to 15 seconds Quarter orange,
  but do not peel. Process until fine, about 25 seconds. Add 
  sugar, eggs and oil. Process about 10 seconds Add baking 
  powder, flour and almonds. Process with several on/off
  turns, just until flour is blended into dough.  Shape into 3 rolls, 
  flouring your hands for easier handling. Place on greased 
  cookie sheet.  Bake at 350F for 25 minutes.  Dough will be 
  cake-like and not quite baked. Slice into 1/2" slices with 
  sharp knife. Place cut-side down on the cookie sheet and return
  to oven at 250F for 1 hour, or until dry and crip.

Archivist's note: Mandelbrot (Yiddish) or Kamishbrot (Ukranian)
is derived from the Italian biscotti, meaning "twice baked."
