Almond Biscotti Toscani (Gluten-Free) image

I went to a gluten-free baking class and this was one of the featured recipes. I had never had biscotti before, so I don't really know how this compares. I liked it however. It was quite good dipped in my coffee and had just the right amount of crunch and sweetness. Makes a fair amount and supposedly keeps for a long time.

The biscotti were a bit too sweet for me. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe.

I found that the biscotti were a bit too dry for my taste. I would recommend adding a little more butter or oil to the dough.

I've made these biscotti several times and they always turn out perfectly. They are crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with a wonderful almond flavor.
