Servings:
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F/175C
- Combine soft brown sugar and margarine in mixing bowl, beat well (or stand mixer using paddle)
- Combine all dry ingredients, except whole almonds, into same bowl, stir with a fork or whisk to blend well.
- Mix dry ingredients into margarine/sugar, mix well until coarse crumbs form (slow speed on mixer)
- Add coconut milk and mix to a smooth dough, work in whole almonds.
- At this stage dough will be rather stiff & a little sticky – good!
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, top with a good handful of sugar.
- Place biscotti dough onto baking sheet and roll-to-coat dough in sugar. (this will help you shape and give you an awesome crunchy crust later on)
- Shape dough to long, uniform log first (approx10-12inchx2inch) then press flat to 1 inch thick, shaping dough into a neat rectangle (your choice of making mini biscotti or larger treats!)
- Bake in the middle of the oven for 35min. Remove from oven and allow to cool off completely.
- Transfer to a cutting board. Using a bread knife (aka serrated) cut to ½ inch thick biscotti.
- Line up sliced biscottis on baking sheet once more, turn down temperature to 325F /160C and bake again (biscotti =twice baked) for 25 minutes, turning biscottis over half way through baking time.
- Transfer ready biscotti to a cooling rack, cool off completely. Drizzle on glaze (if using) keep in airtight container up to month (if the last that long!!)
- Enjoy with a hot cup of Tea-Squared Premium Tea or New Matcha Tea Latte!
