Whole Wheat Lemon Biscotti Recipes

Steps:

• Combine flours and baking powder. Beat butter, sugar, honey, lemon zest, and salt with a mixer on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla and almond extracts. Working in batches, add flour mixture to butter mixture, scraping down sides of bowl after each addition. Fold in almonds with a rubber spatula. Wrap dough in plastic. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Transfer dough to a floured surface. Divide dough in half, and roll each half into a 2-by-15-inch log. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing about 6 inches apart. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Transfer baking sheet to oven. Bake until logs are slightly firm and pale golden, about 35 minutes. Remove logs from oven, and reduce heat to 300 degrees. Let logs stand until cool enough to handle. Transfer to a cutting board. Cut logs on the bias into 1/2-inch-thick slices, returning to baking sheet, flat side down, as you work. Bake until golden, 35 to 40 minutes more. Let cool on sheet. (Biscotti can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 week.)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.
• In a large bowl, mix together oil, sugar, eggs, and molasses. In another bowl, combine flours, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg; mix into egg mixture to form a stiff dough.
• Divide dough in half, and shape each half into a roll the length of the cookie. Place rolls on cookie sheet, and pat down to flatten the dough to 1/2 inch thickness.
• Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool.
• When cool enough to touch, cut into 1/2 inch thick diagonal slices. Place sliced biscotti on cookie sheet, and bake an additional 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until toasted and crispy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Whisk together the flour, almond flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a large bowl with a whisk or electric beater, beat together the sugar and eggs for 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beaters. Add the vanilla and beat for another minute. Turn off the mixer, scrape down the bowl and beaters, and add the flour mixture. Mix in at low speed until combined. The batter will be sticky. Add the almonds and mix until well combined.
• Using a spatula or a bowl scraper, scrape out half the batter onto the baking sheet. Moisten your hands so the dough won't stick, and form a log, about 12 inches long by 2 1/2 inches wide. Repeat with the other half of the batter. The logs can be on the same baking sheet but make sure there is at least two inches of space between them.
• Place in the oven and bake 50 minutes, until lightly browned and dry. Remove from the oven and let sit on a rack for 20 minutes (or longer). Place the logs on a cutting board and slice thin, about 1/3 inch, either straight across the logs (for more, but smaller biscotti) or on the diagonal (for more traditionally shaped biscotti).
• Place the cookies on baking sheets and return one sheet at a time to the middle rack of the oven. Bake 15 minutes. Flip the cookies over and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, until hard and lightly browned. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

Steps:

• Mix together dry ingredients.
• Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
• Divide dough in half. On greased baking sheet, form 2 logs about 2 inches wide and 13 inches long.
• Bake 25 minutes at 350 degrees, then cool on rack for 5-10 minutes.
• Slice with serrated knife at ½ inch intervals.
• Return to oven for 10-15 minutes more, turning once.
• Cool completely and store in airtight container.
• If you have trouble handling the dough because of stickiness, add a little more flour, but not more than ¼ cup. Try oiling your hands or using a rubber spatula and wax paper.
