HOMEMADE ALMOND & ANISE BISCOTTI: Easy and Delicious Recipe for Biscotti, Perfect for Dipping
This Homemade Almond & Anise Biscotti recipe is so easy and delicious, you're going to wonder where it's been all your life! I love it so much. It's my friend's family recipe, that she gave me years ago, and every time I make them, they come out perfect. My friend is Italian, so I'd say this biscotti recipe is pretty authentic. As you know, Italian cookies are often made for dipping, and that is certainly the case with this recipe. But I have to say, they're not overly crunchy. You know how some biscotti you bite into, you feel like you could break your teeth? Well, you don't have to worry about that. This biscotti has just the right amount of crunchiness. Here's the recipe:
Homemade Almond & Anise Biscotti
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/3 cups sugar
1 cup chopped almonds
2 Tbsp. anise seeds
3 tsp. baking powder
2 cubes/1 cup butter (room temperature)
4 eggs
In large mixing bowl, mix butter until fully softened. Add eggs and continue to mix. Then you can begin adding your dry ingredients one at a time, making sure they're incorporated well. Add sugar, flour, baking powder and anise seeds. Mix until you have a consistent dough. Finally, add your chopped/sliced almonds. (Be careful not to over-mix at this point, because you don't want all the sliced almonds to break.) Cover your dough and refrigerate 30 minutes.
Once dough has been chilled, preheat your oven to 375º. Lightly dust a flat surface with flour and divide your dough into 2 or 4 equal parts. Use your fingers to form flat logs out of each section of dough. They should each be about an inch thick. Place them on an un-greased cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Take them out of the oven and cool at least 5 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350º.
Take the baked dough off the cookie sheet and place it on a surface you can cut on. Slice the logs with a serrated knife, on a slight diagonal, into individual biscotti. Place them back on the cookie sheet, laying them on their sides, and bake them another 15 minutes, until golden brown. (If you do like them really crunchy, you can flip them over and let them bake longer. But try them like this first.) Let them cool, and enjoy! You'll especially love dipping them in coffee, so be sure to get a pot brewing.

Biscotti with Almonds, Cranberry, & Orange
This is another winning flavor combination for biscotti, and I’m sure you will enjoy it as much as my family does. The orange zest adds so much flavor to this and is a perfect complement to the craisins. Try this recipe with walnuts or pecans instead of almonds for a different flavor variation.
Ingredients
• 1 cup sugar
• ½ cup neutral oil
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 cup almonds roughly chopped
• 1 cup craisins
• zest from 1 large or 2 small oranges
• ½ tsp orange extract
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
3. Combine sugar, oil, eggs, vanilla extract, orange extract, and orange zest in a large bowl and mix until well-blended.
4. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl and add to egg mixture.
5. The dough will be heavy. Mix until well combined. If necessary, use your hands to combine thoroughly.
6. Add almonds and craisins and mix into the dough.
7. Divide dough into two equal pieces. Place sheet of parchment paper on sheet pan. Form each piece into a log the length of your cookie sheet and approximately ½ inch thick.
8. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown. Carefully transfer logs to wire racks until cool enough to handle.
9. Lower oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
10. Slice each log crosswise into roughly ½ inch slices. Place slices back on the cookie sheet.
11. Bake an additional 20-30 minutes until lightly toasted.
12. Allow to cool and store in airtight container or freeze.

The Best Gingerbread Biscotti
I don't usually call something the best, but this recipe is!
Packed with flavour, this biscotti is delicious to eat by itself, or dunked in a hot drink. I suggest not skipping the step of dipping in white chocolate. It really does complete the cookie!
This recipe is all done by hand, you do not want to use a mixer. Another critical step is using “Blackstrap Molasses” not “Fancy”. Blackstrap gives this biscotti its flavour kick. The one time I used Fancy I was very underwhelmed. So pick up some Blackstrap Molasses and let’s get baking!

Recipe below:
Ingredients:
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup white sugar
3 eggs
1/4 cup blackstrap molasses
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons ground ginger
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
White chocolate molding wafers (optional)
Method:
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together oil, sugar, eggs, and molasses.
3. In medium sized bowl, whisk flours, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
4. Pour dry ingredients into wet and mix. I like mixing with a spatula.
5. With floured hands (to avoid sticking), divide dough in half, and shape each half into a roll the length of the cookie (about 12 inches long each). Place rolls on cookie sheet, and pat down to flatten the dough to 1/2 inch
6. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven, and set aside for 5-10min.
7. When biscotti is cool enough to touch (but still warm), cut into diagonal slices. Place sliced biscotti back on the baking sheet, and bake an additional 5 to 7 minutes on each side.
8. Once cooled, dip in white chocolate molding wafers and set on parchment or wax paper to harden. As biscotti is quite crumbly, I like to dust off the extra crumbs before dipping.
9. Eat!
Biscotti will last weeks in an air tight container.
*Recipe makes around 40 biscotti. Depends on your log sizes and thickness you cut.
