In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Continue cooking the butter, stirring occasionally, until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma.
Tip: This should take about 10-12 minutes.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces and shape each piece into a florentine biscuit.
Tip: Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each biscuit.

Drizzle the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
