Maple Walnut Biscotti Recipe

Prep: 30 min. Bake: 35 min. + cooling

Yield: 28 Servings

30 35 65

Ingredients

2 eggs
1 egg white
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup oat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup dark chocolate chips or white baking chips

Directions

In a small bowl, beat eggs, egg white, syrup, sugar and vanilla until blended. Combine flours and baking soda; gradually add to egg mixture and mix well (dough will be sticky). Stir in walnuts and cranberries.
With floured hands, shape into two 10-in. x 2-1/2-in. rectangles on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 22-26 minutes or until set.
Reduce heat to 325°. Place pan on a wire rack. When cool enough to handle, transfer to a cutting board; cut diagonally with a serrated knife into 1/2-in. slices. Place cut side down on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 9-11 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
In a microwave, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Place biscotti on waxed paper-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with chocolate; chill until set. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 28 biscotti.

Editor's Note: As a substitute for 1/2 cup oat flour, process 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons quick-cooking or old-fashioned oats until finely ground.
