First things first: thank you all so, so much for the kind words on yesterday’s post about finally becoming an RD. I still can’t believe that I’m really done! It’s been an honor to share my back to school journey with all of you over the past 3 years. Thank you for reading and stay tuned to see what comes next. 🙂

And now – a new recipe! I’m officially obsessed with biscotti.

After my Whole Wheat Pumpkin Goji Biscotti success in December, I decided it was time to try my hand at another batch, because let’s be honest… lattes just aren’t quite the same without biscotti.

This time, the goal was an old favorite: almond biscotti, but with a twist – no milk or eggs so my vegan friends could enjoy it, too.

It was a major success, if I do say so myself. Like last time, these are whole wheat and lower in sugar than normal biscotti, too. Instead of skim milk, I used Silk Pure Almond Unsweetened Vanilla almondmilk, which not only kept the recipe vegan but also added a fun hint of vanilla to the biscotti, too. It’s only 30 calories per serving, 100% free of lactose and dairy, and also adds a little calcium punch to the mix – it has 50% more calcium per serving than skim milk!

Did I mention they’re delicious? My friend Gena happily served as my taste tester and gave them 2 thumbs up. 🙂

  • 3/4 cup slivered almonds
  • 3/4 cup almond flour/meal
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

1. In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except for almondmilk. Once mixed, slowly add almondmilk and mix until uniform.

2. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray; form dough into a loaf shape and place on sheet.

3. Bake until center is firm (about 20 to 25 minutes); remove from oven and cool. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees.

4. Once cool, slice into 1-inch thick cookies; bake 15 to 20 additional minutes at 300 degrees.

Let cool and enjoy with a latte!

    These are great sounding! Do you think if I used almond meal/flour instead it would work? I have a gluten intolerance and would love to have a biscotti!!

      Hmm I'm not sure - it might be too crumbly? You could try it, though!

    Almond, dipped in chocolate. Nothing gluten free, low sugar or low cal about those. Which is why I rarely ever eat them.

    Can you make this gluten free also? Maybe with almond/coconut/fava flour? I'm not much of a creative baker, I just like to follow recipes, but I'm Gluten free, but these sound amazing!

    You have NO idea how much I have been looking for a biscotti recipe - one for a vegan coffee-loving friend. I kept looking for anything vegan at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, came up with nothing, and I also didn't want a cranberry pistachio one - ick. Thank you, Anne!

    these look delicious, i was going to try them tonight but in perusing other biscotti recipes i see that most others include eggs/oil. Does the almond milk substitute for the fat content in these cookies? Thanks!!

    Trying this but I have no whole wheat pastry flour, so I'll be subbing : Per 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour substitute 1/2 cup cake flour and 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

    I follow vegan diet . Me and my husband loved this recipe. Not only does it taste good but much healthier as it does not contain any refined oils. I am baking double batch right now. Thanks for the great recipe.
