  Put almonds in a shallow pan. Toast at 350F for 10 minutes.  Cool.
  Chop coarsely.  Mix flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and nuts in a
  large mixing bowl.  In a separate bowl, beat eggs, vanilla, almond
  extract and zert about 1 minute. Add to flour mixture. Cut dough in
  half. On a greased and floured baking sheet, pat dough into two logs,
  1/2" thick x 1-1/2" wide and 12" long. Place logs 2" apart. Bake in a
  preheated 300F over for 50 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a
  wire rack for 5 minutes. With a serrated knife, cut loaves at 45
  degree angle, 1/2" thick (16-10 pieces). Lay slices flat on a baking
  sheet. Cook at 275F for 20-25 minutes, turning once. Store in an
  airtight container. (from my mother-in-law, Eleanor Kellner)
