????Imagine a crisp autumn morning, a steaming cup of coffee in hand, and the gentle crunch of Apple Cinnamon Biscotti. This recipe weaves together the comforting flavors of ripe apples and aromatic cinnamon into a delightful treat that’s perfect for sharing or savoring in solitude.
???? Ingredients (Makes about 18 biscotti):
2 cups all-purpose flour ????
1 teaspoon baking powder ????
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon ????
1/4 teaspoon salt ????
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened ????
3/4 cup granulated sugar ????
2 large eggs ????
1 teaspoon vanilla extract ????
1 cup dried apples, chopped ????
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans ????
???????? Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then add the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the dried apples and chopped nuts.
Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a log about 10 inches long and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the logs are golden and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let the logs cool for 10-15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C).
Use a serrated knife to slice the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch thick biscotti.
Place the biscotti cut side down on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy.
Let the biscotti cool completely on a wire rack.
