Method

Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Lay slices on the tray and bake for 5–7 minutes per side until golden-brown.

Mix flour, baking powder, and sugar in a bowl, then slowly add eggs to form a dough.

Cool logs slightly and cut diagonally into 1.5–2cm thick slices.

Roll each portion into a 25cm log, place on the tray, and bake for 25 minutes.

Knead the dough gently on a floured surface and divide it into two portions.

Stir in the chopped hazelnuts and orange zest.

Preheat the oven to 170°C and line a large baking tray with parchment.
