Gluten Free Biscotti

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!

unbaked

baked 




I found a simple recipe for gluten free biscotti in the newspaper and decided to use it as a guide. Here is the recipe with a few changes. I used stevia instead of sugar, cranberries instead of chocolate chips, also finished up a package of gluten free flour blend I had as opposed to using almond flour. After watching some biscotti  videos on youtube, it seems you should cut the biscotti on the diagonal and bake with the cut sides up.  I will do that next time, as I am now curious to try making biscotti with actual flour.

2c gluten free flour (eg almond flour)
1c potato starch (or corn starch)
1c sugar or 1/2c stevia
1/2c olive oil
2 eggs
(I needed to add 1c water)
1/4c dried cranberries

preheat oven 350F

combine dry ingredients
add oil, eggs, mix well
add cranberry, mix together
shape dough into a roll approx 20" long (add the water if it doesn't seem to be coming together)
flatten it to a 4 - 5 inch width
bake 20 min at 350F
cool
slice into 1/2" slices on the diagonal
lay flat on tray, with the cut sides up
bake at 300F for 15 mins (optionally can turn half way thru baking)
