Delicious biscotti, dunked in a cup of coffee while sitting out in the sun…perfection! For extra flavor and texture, we’ve added delicious, but naturally, sweet California Prunes to this biscotti and they are amazing! This recipe by Chef Peter Sidwell is one you’ll definitely want to try!
Ingredients
- 2 medium eggs
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour plus extra for dusting
- ½ tsp baking soda
- Zest 1 orange
- ¼ cup toasted hazelnuts roughly chopped
- ⅔ cup chopped California Prunes
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350°F (175C) and line a large non-stick baking tray.
- Whisk together the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Sift the flour and baking soda into a bowl, then add the orange zest, hazelnuts, and California Prunes. Fold into the egg mix to make a soft dough.
- Tip onto a lightly floured surface and shape into a 10-inch (25cm) sausage shape with lightly floured hands.
- Transfer to a baking sheet and flatten to a 1-inch (2.5 cm) thickness, then bake for 30 mins until lightly browned on top.
- Remove from the oven and slide the biscotti log onto a chopping board.
- Reduce the oven to 325°F (160F).
- Cut the log into ½ inch (1 cm) thick slices and return to the baking sheet, cut sides up. Return to the oven and bake for a further 10-15 mins until crisp, then cool on a wire rack.
