Cinnamon Walnut Biscotti

Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 50 mins
Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 32

Ingredients:

1 cup unbleached white whole wheat flour, room temp
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, room temp
3/4 cup sugar
1.5 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
3 large eggs, room temp
2 tablespoons butter or vegan butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions:

To Prepare:

  1. Set oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Measure flours, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, almond milk, vanilla, and butter. Finally, coarsely chop walnuts.
  3. In a large bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to combine and proceed to stir in chopped walnuts.
  4. Place butter in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds and melt completely.
  5. In another bowl, whisk almond milk, eggs, melted Earth Balance, and vanilla.
  6. Slowly pour wet ingredients into dry, mixing until fully incorporated (don’t overmix).
  7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Grab some all-purpose flour and lightly flour a work surface. Place the dough on the work surface and divide it in half.
  8. Lightly flour your hands and form each dough section into an oval log. Place 4 to 6" apart (they need to spread) on the baking sheet.

To Cook:

  1. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until logs feel firm to the touch (I baked for 25 minutes). Pull out the baking sheet (leave oven on) and let cool for 10 minutes.
  2. Transfer logs to the work surface and proceed to slice. If you want evenly sized Biscotti, cut them as follows: (resulting in 16 slices per log) (quarters)
  3. Transfer back to the baking sheet (don’t need a lot of room between them) and bake for 10 minutes.
  4. Flip each Biscotti to the other side and bake an additional 15 minutes.
  5. Remove from the baking sheet to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
  6. I recommend a layer of parchment or wax paper between each layer. Enjoy!
