Eggless Almond Biscotti

These traditional almond biscotti are satisfying and not overly sweet. They go great with coffee and after every bite you'll be saying mm mm mmm!

Ingredients:
1.5 cups unbleached all purpose flour
Pinch of salt
0.5 tbsp baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp honey
4 tbsp vegetable oil
3/4 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup of Almonds (coarsely blended in blender or pre-sliced)
pinch of fresh nutmeg
(5-6 tbsp) Couple tablespoons of water (you have to keep adding until you have a sticky but formable dough)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Sift the flour, salt, and baking powder together. Add the sugar, honey, oil, vanilla extract, nutmeg, almonds, and water to the dry mix and combine. Knead the dough until it can stay intact. On a sheet-pan (greased or lined with parchment paper) place the dough and form a rectangle not too thin (about 1/2 inch thick). Put in the oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Then take the biscotti out and let cool. Slice evenly and place back in oven for about 10 minutes on each side or until golden brown. (Dip in melted chocolate if desired!)

  2. you site is so cute and your recipes look great. but i really think you need to take better photos of the food. I'm not sure if you are using a cell phone but you need to use a real digital camera. Just put the plate right near a window to get strong natural light. thats all you need to know to take great pics for this blog. best of luck!
