Granola Biscotti Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 30 min. + cooling

Yield: 30 Servings

20 30 50

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 egg white
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup reduced-fat granola
2/3 cup dried cranberries

Directions

In a small bowl, beat butter and sugar until crumbly, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg, egg white and extract. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually add to butter mixture. Break apart any large pieces of granola; stir granola and cranberries into dough.
Divide dough in half. With lightly floured hands, shape each portion into a 12-in. x 1-1/2-in. rectangle; place each on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Carefully remove to wire racks; cool for 5 minutes.
Transfer to a cutting board; cut with a serrated knife into 3/4-in. slices. Place cut side down on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake for 5 minutes. Turn and bake 5-7 minutes longer or until firm. Remove to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 2-1/2 dozen.

My first attempt at biscotti and these turned out beautifully. Very easy to make. I used vanilla instead of almond extract because I didn't have it and didn't want to spend $6 for it until I found out if I liked the recipe. I will be making more of this recipe for myself and for gifts.
