Notes
Makes 24 biscotti – Store in an airtight container. Crisp or reheat them in a toaster/oven before serving if they get soft after storing. I like to use spelt flour because it is easier to digest than whole wheat flour and contains a bit more protein. ***Please buy all organic ingredients if possible***
