CLASSIC BISCOTTI RECIPE - 4 WAYS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar together until creamy.
• Add the eggs and vanilla extract. If you would like to add almond extract or anise extract, add it now. Mix until well combined.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the all purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt.
• Add the flour mixture to the mixing bowl and mix on low speed until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a ball and then use your hands to shape each ball into a log that is about 8 inches long.
• Place the logs on the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands to flatten the dough logs until they are about 3/4-inch thick. Gently press the sides and ends of the logs to even them out and flatten them.
• If desired, sprinkle the logs with turbinado sugar.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, until lightly golden and the center of the logs is almost firm and bounces back when touched.
• Let the logs cool on the baking sheet for 30 minutes.
• Use a sharp knife to cut the logs into biscotti shape, on the diagonal. Press straight down with the knife, rather than sawing.

CINNAMON-MAPLE OAT BISCOTTI WITH YOGURT DIP

Steps:

• For the dip: Whisk together the yogurt, sugar, orange zest and vanilla in a small bowl. Stir in just enough cream to make a clingy dipping sauce. Cover and refrigerate while you prepared the biscotti. Remove from the refrigerator 5 minutes before using.
• For the biscotti: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, lightly spray with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Whisk together the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Whisk together the eggs in a small bowl until smooth. Add the maple syrup, butter, oil and vanilla and whisk until combined. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients along with the apricots and cranberries and mix with a wooden spoon until the dough just comes together; it will be wet. Using lightly floured hands (the dough may be a bit sticky so re-flour your hands as needed) transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and shape into a log about 12 inches-by-4 inches.
• Bake until lightly golden and firm to the touch, about 20 minutes. The log will have spread quite a bit. Cool on the pan on a cooling rack for 10 minutes (or until the log is cool enough to handle).
• Slice the log into 1/3-inch-wide slices on the diagonal. Lay the slices down on the sheet pan and bake until dry, 10 to 12 minutes longer. Let the slices sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely, about 10 minutes. Once the biscotti are cool, serve with the yogurt dip. The biscotti will keep 1 week at room temperature in a tightly sealed container.
