Holiday Biscotti Recipe - Food.com image

While the day following Thanksgiving is a major shopping day for many, in my family it represents the start of our annual cookie baking. I was looking for a cookie, preferably a biscotti to use some extra almond flour and could not find one. A little tinkering with one of my favorite basic biscotti recipes and a new holiday cookie was born. These are large biscotti, perfectly sized for dunking.

Total Time 1 hours 10 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 38 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup whole almond, coarsely cut into 2-3 pieces
1/4 cup candied orange peel
1/2-2/3 cup mixed candied fruit
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare baking sheet with a light coat of cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, baking soda, salt, eggs and extracts together.
  • Add in the almond flour and 2 cups of all purpose flour and mix with a large wooden spoon.
  • Begin stirring in the nuts and candied fruit. Sprinkle in the remain 1/4 cup of flour. At this point you will need to put the spoon down and knead by hand. Knead 8 or 9 times until the fruit and nuts are well distributed.
  • Divide the dough in half and shape into logs about 9-10 inches long. Be sure that your logs are of an even width from top to bottom. Place on baking sheet several inches apart and lightly flatten the top. (Note the width of the loaves will double in baking.).
  • In a small bowl, combine egg and water and blend. Using a pastry brush apply a light egg wash to the tops of each loaf.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on rack for 8-10 minutes.
  • Take loaves and slice on diagonal making wedges 1/2 inch thick. Place slices on baking sheet cut sides up and bake for 3-5 minutes. Turn the cookies over and return to the oven and bake an additional 5-8 minutes. Cookies will be dry and crisp to the touch.
  • Place on rack and allow to cool completely before storing.
  • Note: For holiday trays you can also make smaller biscotti by dividing the dough into 3 loaves. Reduce initial baking time to 25 minutes. Use the lower ranges in the times given for the second baking. In thirds, my loaves were about 4 inches long, longer when cut on the diagonal.

  • 1) Position oven racks in the middle and top of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. 2) In a large bowl mix together the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder to combine. In a small bowl toss the Clementine zest, the flaked almonds and cranberries with about ? cup of the flour mixture. Mix it together well to insure the zest is not in big clumps. Add this mixture to the large bowl of the flour mixture and mix well. 3) In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the eggs, oil and Clementine juice and mix to combine well. Add the flour mixture and mix to combine but not over mixing! 4) The dough will be very sticky. 5) Dump dough onto a heavily floured board and divide dough in to 6 equal portions. Roll each piece into a log that?s about 12 inches long, make sure to dust with flour along the way to keep dough from sticking. Set the logs about 3 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet, press gently to flatten each log so that they are about 1 ? to 2 inches wide. Bake until the logs are golden and firmly near the center, about 25 minutes rotating the baking sheets half way through to insure even baking. 6) Let the logs cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes. Transfer logs to a cutting board, using a serrated knife, slice them on a sharp diagonal into about ? inch thick slices. Arrange the slices on the baking sheets, laying cut side down. Return to oven and bake for 7 minutes. Turn the cookies over and rotate the baking sheets and bake for another 9 to 10 minutes or until golden and lightly browned. 7) Let cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. (The cookies will not harden until totally cooled) Enjoy! These are classic Italian biscotti but I decided to make a holiday version of them. Lots of people I know like to add pistachio to them because the are very pretty and green but honestly, I am not a fan of pistachio at all! I really love almonds so I figured why not add those in since they are very traditional in biscotti, and add some holiday flavorings with some dried cranberries and Clementine?s? so that?s what I did and I am happy to report that it is a killer combinations and honestly I make there all year long except I use oranges when Clementine?s aren?t in season.
