Today I made biscotti free off eggs, butter and milk to fit my fasting for Easter.
I know I may end up eating some of them while my little girl eat some and feed me as well:)
So here is the recipe:
Almond egg less, dairy free Biscotti
Ingredients:
1/2 cup oil (here you can use 1/2 cup apple sauce if you want to reduce the calories, I do this most of the time )
1 cup sugar ( I used half cup brown sugar, half sweetener, you can use any type of sugar)
1/2 cup sprite, or anything else you have like sprite ( this replace the eggs and helps the dough to rise better)
3 cups whole wheat flour ( you can use all purpose flour if you wish, no problem with it.)
1/4 cup ground almonds ( if you want you can use same amount cocoa pwdr and you will have chocolate biscotti ;))
1table spoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon almond extract or as per the direction on the bottle you are using ( if using cocoa , you can use coconut extract or vanilla)
Optional: ( If you like spices)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tsp cardamom
1/2 tsp cloves
few pinches of nutmeg
omit the almond extract.
use around 1/2 cup pistachios
Method:
Preheat the oven to 375F.
Prepare and grease cookie sheet or foil.
In a bowl mix flour, almonds, baking powder and keep aside.
In a different bowl beat to smooth oil and sugar. Add sprite and mix again.
Combine both flour and oil mixture. the dough should be thick. If needed you can add litle more flour to make it easy to work with it.
Here you can add a handful of chocolate chip, raisins, pistachios, pecans, or anythingelse you can think of.
Divide into 2 pieces and make roll out of each. Once you place the roll on the baking sheet press the roll down to flatten it to aprox half inch.
Bake for 25 min. Take out of the oven and let it cool dawn.
Start slicing diagonally to a half inch biscotti .
Return back with the sides up to the oven to bake (dry) the biscotti for around 5 min each side and let them stay in the oven until cool down.
Frosting (optional)
1 cup sugar
2 tsp soy milk or regular milk
almond extract
Mix all well and spread over the biscotti.
Let it cool down
Enjoy!
