Gluten Free Chocolate Buckwheat Biscotti Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. In a medium bowl, mix together the buckwheat flour, cornstarch (if using), almond flour, cocoa, instant espresso powder (if using), baking powder and salt.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter and sugar for 2 minutes on medium speed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater with a rubber spatula and add the eggs, coffee extract (if using) and vanilla extract. Beat together for 1 to 2 minutes, until well blended. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater. Add the flour mixture and beat at low speed until well blended. Add the walnuts and beat at low speed until mixed evenly through the dough.
• Divide the dough and shape 2 wide, flat logs, about 10 inches long by 3 inches wide by 3/4 inch high. Make sure they are at least 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Place in the oven on the middle rack and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until dry, beginning to crack in the middle, and firm. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 20 minutes or longer.
• Place the logs on a cutting board and carefully cut into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place on two parchment-covered baking sheets and bake one sheet at a time in the middle of the oven until the slices are dry, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl.
• Combine eggs, egg whites, vanilla, and creme de cacao in a separate bowl; beat with a fork.
• Add egg mixture to flour mixture; mix (dough may feel slightly dry).
• Lightly knead 8 to 10 minutes; form into a 16" oval roll that is 1 1/2" thick in the centre.
• Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350* oven for 30 minutes.
• Cool on a wire rack and cut, slightly on the diagonal, into 1/2" slices.
• Reduce oven heat to 325* and bake, cut side down, for 10 minutes.
• Turn over and bake for an additional 10 minutes until crisp (centres may be slightly soft, but will harden up when cooled).
• Remove to wire rack to cool.
• Enjoy!
