In a deep bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla extract and sugar. Mix in oil.
In a separate bowl combine flour, baking powder and anise seeds.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix with a spoon or spatula.
Moisten your hands lightly with oil and form dough into a rectangle or a log 0.5 inch thickness.
Bake in the middle rack for 20-25 minutes or until until the top and sides of the biscotti turns light brown.
Remove from oven and let cool down for 10 minutes.
Cut into ½ inch slices, turn slices to one side and bake for another 6-8 minutes to brown.
Turn biscottis on the other side and repeat browning.
Let them cool down before serving. Store in an airtight container.
Note1: This solely depends on the size you like for your biscotti to be.
The original post was double this recipe but I decided to half the recipe this time. If you would like to make a big batch, just double EVERYTHING in the ingredients list including the baking powder.
