Add 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1½ teaspoon baking powder, and 1 pinch salt.Mix with a spatula until you get a dough.
Transfer the dough to a lightly dusted worktop and knead with your hands for a minute.You want a compact dough ball without over-kneading.
Cut the dough into two parts and shape each into a long, flat log.Arrange the two logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 25 minutes at 340°F or 170°C then let cool down for 20 minutes.
Cut the logs diagonally into the classic biscotti shape. Use a serrated knife or bread knife.
Put back on the tray, flat on the cut side, and bake for 10 minutes or until golden.
Let cool down completely before serving.
