Biscotti" is an Italian word referring to hard, crunchy, twice-baked cookies. These biscotti can be kept for weeks in an airtight container, but are pretty enough to be wrapped in clear plastic with a ribbon and given as a gift
Ingredients
- 4.6 ounces brown rice flour (about 1 cup)
- 2.1 ounces tapioca flour (about 1/2 cup)
- 0.9 ounce almond meal flour (about 1/4 cup)
- 1.15 ounces cornstarch (about 1/4 cup)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup shelled dry-roasted pistachios
- Brown rice flour, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °.
- Weigh or lightly spoon flours and cornstarch into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, cornstarch, cocoa, and next 5 ingredients (through salt) in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk.
- Beat brown sugar, granulated sugar, coffee granules, vanilla, and eggs with a stand mixer at medium speed until well blended. Gradually add flour mixture; beat until blended. Add pistachios; beat on low until blended.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough in half. Shape each half of dough into a 12-inch-long roll on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; pat to a 3/4-inch thickness. (Flour hands with brown rice flour if dough is sticky.)
- Bake at 350 ° for 20 minutes or until firm to touch. Remove rolls from baking sheets; cool 30 minutes on a wire rack. Cut each roll diagonally into 20 (1/2-inch) slices Place slices on baking sheets, and bake at 350 ° for 6 to 8 minutes. Turn slices over and bake an additional 6 to 8 minutes (cookies will be slightly soft in center but will harden as they cool). Remove from baking sheets; cool completely on wire rack.
