Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are sweeter and have a more intense flavor, making them ideal for biscotti.
  • Don't over mix the dough: Over mixing the dough will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and then stop.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will make it easier to handle and will help the biscotti keep their shape while baking.
  • Bake the biscotti twice: Baking the biscotti twice will help them to dry out and become crispy.
  • Store the biscotti in an airtight container: Biscotti can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
