Ingredients
  

Apple Pie Biscotti

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 cup semonlina four
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 cup almond butter
  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/3 cup apple butter (Can substitute apple sauce or pear butter. If using unsweetened apple sauce add 1 tbsp of sugar if desired).
  • 3-4 tbsp non-dairy milk of choice (I use oat milk)
  • 1 tbsp fresh apple cider (optional)

Ginger Orange Glaze

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (approximately 1 orange)
  • 1 orange zested
  • 2 tbsp non dairy milk (I use oat milk.)
  • 2-3 tsp fresh peeled ginger root

Instructions
 

Apple Pie Biscotti

  • Pre heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer EXCEPT for the milk and apple cider (if using).
  • Using a paddle attachment slowly mix ingredients together adding 1 tbsp of milk at a time until cookie dough forms.
  • On a silicone or parchment lined baking tray, shape the cookie dough into a log shape, squaring the ends. The log will be long and about 3 inches wide.
  • Bake log for approximately 35 minutes until golden brown.
  • Allow to cool to room temperature. This step is very important, if you try to cut the biscotti log too early it will crumble and fall apart. Once cool, slice the log into slices (just like slicing a loaf of bread).
  • Arrange slices on silicone or parchment lined baking tray and bake an additional 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool.

Ginger Orange Glaze

  • Combine orange juice, orange zest, and ginger in a small blender cup or food process. Transfer to a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
  • Whisk together orange mixture, powdered sugar and 1-3 tbsp of non-dairy milk as needed to reach desired consistency.
  • Using a kitchen frosting brush or a spoon, glaze each biscotti piece. Set on a tray lined with wax paper to dry.
  • Cookies keep very well in the freezer for a few weeks if they last that long.
