Cranberry Walnut Biscotti

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cranberry Walnut Biscotti.

1. Step 1

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

2. Step 2

   In a large mixing bowl, beat together the sugar, eggs, canola oil, vanilla extract, almond extract, and orange zest until well combined.

3. Step 3

   In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually stir this dry mixture into the wet ingredients to form a stiff dough.

4. Step 4

   Fold in the sweetened dried cranberries and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.

5. Step 5

   Divide the dough into two equal pieces. Shape each piece into a roll that fits the length of your cookie sheet, flattening each roll to about 1/2-inch thickness using the parchment paper.

6. Step 6

   Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes until safe to handle.

7. Step 7

   Once cooled, slice each roll crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices. Place the slices back on the cookie sheet, cut-side up, and return to the oven.

8. Step 8

   Continue baking for an additional 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until the biscotti are lightly toasted.
