1.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
2.
In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients, including the almond flour, coconut sugar, cacao powder (if making the chocolate version), baking powder, and salt.
3.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir in the egg, coconut oil, and extract. Mix until a thick, sticky dough is formed. If you want to add nuts, dried fruit etc., now is the time to do it.
4.
Transfer the dough to the baking sheet, and use your hands to press it into a “log” shape.
5.
Bake for 20 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.
6.
Turn off the oven, remove the pan, and let the loaf cool completely. This will make it easier to slice.
7.
Once it’s cool, slice the loaf into half-inch pieces, making about 20 to 22 slices. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit for the second bake.
8.
Arrange the slices in a single layer on the baking sheet, and bake for 30 minutes. Then, remove the pan, flip the slices, and bake for another 30 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the biscotti stay in the oven as it cools. This will help them really crisp up.
9.
When the biscotti are cool, they should be perfectly crispy. Add drizzled chocolate and any add-ons!
I just had to write a review …. so simple and these came out amazing!! I did just choc chips with the chocolate biscotti and did nuts and chocolate chips in the regular one.
