Cherry Biscotti Recipe

Makes about 60

Ingredients:

4 cups plain flour

1 tsp baking powder

pinch salt

4 eggs

1 cup caster sugar

250g glacé cherries, halved

1 egg white (extra), whisked

Method:

Preheat oven to 180C. Line a large 
baking tray with baking paper. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Set aside.

Put eggs and sugar in a food processor and process until well combined. Add flour mixture, 1 cup 
at a time, pulsing after each addition until well combined.

Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead in cherries. Divide dough into 4 portions and roll into logs approximately 20cm long. Brush with egg white (extra) and bake for 30 minutes or until firm to the touch. Cool for 10–15 minutes or until cool enough to handle.

Reduce oven to 160C. Using a serrated knife, cut logs into thin slices. Put slices on baking trays lined with baking paper. Cook for 15–20 minutes or until biscotti is dry and crisp.

Cool completely before transferring to airtight containers.
