Beat eggs and sugar thoroughly, then add anise seed. Sift and measure flour, and add to the sugar/egg mixture until combined.

Remove loaf from pan and cut loaf into sixteen 1/2" thick slices.

Place slices on greased baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes, or until bottoms of slices are browned; turn and bake another 5 minutes, or until sides are browned.
