Grape Nuts Biscotti Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a heavy large baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk the flour and baking powder in a medium bowl to blend. Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar, butter, lemon zest, and salt in a large bowl to blend. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time. Add the flour mixture and beat just until blended. Stir in the pistachios and cranberries.
• Form the dough into a 13-inch long, 3-inch wide log on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until light golden, about 40 minutes. Cool for 30 minutes.
• Place the log on the cutting board. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut the log on a diagonal into 1/2 to 3/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the biscotti, cut side down, on the baking sheet. Bake the biscotti until they are pale golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer the biscotti to a rack and cool completely.
• Stir the chocolate in a bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water until the chocolate melts. Dip half of the biscotti into the melted chocolate. Gently shake off the excess chocolate. Place the biscotti on the baking sheet for the chocolate to set. Sprinkle with the sugar crystals. Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm, about 35 minutes.
• The biscotti can be made ahead. Store them in an airtight container up to 4 days, or wrap them in foil and freeze in resealable plastic bags up to 3 weeks.

Steps:

• Place all dry ingredients into a bowl and blend together. Make a well in the center of the mixture. Mix eggs, oil, almond extract, and orange zest together and add to the dry mixture all at once.
• With hands or slotted spoon, work dry mixture with liquids until a dough has been formed. Turn mixture out on a lightly floured surface and roll into log approx 15 inches long. Place log onto a sill pack baking sheet. Press log into a sheet of dough approximately ¾-inch thick by 6 x 15.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes until lightly colored on top. Remove from oven and cool slightly.
• Remove to a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut cylinders diagonally into 3/4 inch slices. Carefully place slices back on the baking sheet, cut sides down, and return to the oven for 15 minutes more. Bake until sides are golden and biscotti have dried out a bit. Remove from the oven and cool on wire racks. They should be crunchy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Combine flour, brown sugar, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir in buttermilk and vanilla extract; mix well. Pour mixture into prepared baking sheet and spread evenly with a spatula.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and firm, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool patty in the baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
• Break cooked patty into chunks and put through a meat grinder, using a coarse blade. Divide crumbs over two baking sheets.
• Bake in the oven until dry, stirring every 10 minutes, about 30 minutes. Allow crumbs to cool completely and store in an airtight container.
