Description

Crisp, golden biscotti infused with zesty orange and studded with tart cranberries and toasted almonds — a delightful treat dipped in smooth white chocolate.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 280g all-purpose flour
  • 4g baking powder
  • 3g salt
  • 56g unsalted butter, softened
  • 150g granulated sugar
  • 10g orange zest (about 1.5 tbsp)
  • 2 large eggs (100g total)
  • 5ml pure vanilla extract
  • 90g toasted almonds, coarsely chopped
  • 90g dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
  • 225g white chocolate, chopped (for dipping)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
  3. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, and orange zest until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  4. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in almonds and cranberries.
  5. Knead lightly to bring the dough together. Divide into two portions and shape into logs about 30cm x 5cm. Place on baking sheet and bake for 30–35 minutes, until golden. Reduce oven temperature to 135°C (275°F).
  6. Cool 10 minutes. Slice logs diagonally into 1.5cm pieces and place cut-side down on baking sheets. Bake again for 30–40 minutes until crisp and golden. Cool completely on wire racks.
  7. Melt white chocolate and dip one end of each biscotti. Place on parchment to set. Enjoy!

Notes

Store biscotti in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Perfect for gifting or dipping in coffee!
