Low Fat Almond Cinnamon Biscotti Recipes

Steps:

• Stir together sugar, butter, brandy, and extracts in a large bowl, then stir in almonds and eggs. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
• Chill dough, covered, 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Using moistened hands, halve dough and form 2 (16-by 2-inch) loaves on an ungreased large baking sheet.
• Bake until pale golden, about 30 minutes. Carefully transfer loaves to a rack and cool 15 minutes.
• Cut loaves into 3/4-inch slices with a serrated knife.
• Arrange biscotti, with a cut side down, on a clean baking sheet and bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Sift together the flour, 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, baking powder and salt, set aside. In a medium bowl, cream together the 2/3 cup sugar and butter. Beat in 1 egg, egg yolk and vanilla. Stir in the dry ingredients.
• On a lightly floured surface, divide dough into two pieces. Roll each piece into a log about 9 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide. Place logs on the prepared baking sheet and flatten slightly. Brush with the beaten egg.
• Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden and firm to the touch. Cool for 15 minutes.
• On a cutting board, slice each log crosswise at a diagonal into 1/2 inch slices, using a serrated knife. Place back on the baking sheet, cut side down, and sprinkle with a mixture of the remaining cinnamon and sugar. Return to the oven for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until toasted. Cool on wire racks, and store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F and spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Stir together eggs and sugar in a medium bowl. Mix in flour, baking soda and cinnamon; stir in almonds. Knead several times on a lightly floured board, then form into a log about 2-inches in diameter; press to flatten slightly. Place on prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Slice 1/2-inch thick and place back on baking sheet; bake for 5 to 7 minutes more on each side.

Steps:

• Sift together the first 4 ingredients in small bowl.
• Beat together the next 4 ingredients.
• Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and combine on low speed of mixer.
• Add the almonds and chocolate chips.
• Preheat oven to 325.
• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using a spoon, scoop the dough in two lines down the length of the baking sheet (use two if you need to), keeping them about 3 inches apart.
• They'll be about 12"- 14" X 2" strips.
• Bake until firm and barley showing color, about 25-30 minutes.
• Cool on rack 10 minutes.
• Lower oven temperature to 300.
• Take the strips and slice them cross-wise into about 1/2" slices.
• Return to the baking sheet, and standing them upright with some space between them, bake for an additional 30-35 minutes until crisp and very light golden.
• Cool and store in an air tight container.
