07 - ½ teaspoon almond extract
08 - ¼ cup vegetable oil
→ Add-Ins
09 - 1 cup sliced almonds, lightly toasted

# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and fine sea salt in a large bowl.
03 - In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with vanilla extract, almond extract, and vegetable oil until smooth.
04 - Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
05 - Gently fold in toasted almonds and mini chocolate chips if using.
06 - Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log approximately 10 inches long and 2 inches wide on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly.
07 - Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until set and lightly golden. Remove and let cool for 10 minutes.
08 - Lower the oven temperature to 300°F.
09 - Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the logs diagonally into ¾-inch thick pieces.
10 - Arrange slices cut side up on the baking sheet. Bake 5 minutes, flip, and bake another 5 minutes for a soft texture. Extend baking for a crunchier result.
11 - Cool completely on a wire rack before serving alongside freshly brewed coffee.
