Directions
Vegan Almond Biscotti,I loved biscotti before I became vegan, so I was thrilled when I found this version in “Nonna’s Italian Kitchen”, a vegan Italian cookbook.,Not a review, but a warning: your recipe calls for cane sugar but it’s supposed to be a vegan recipe. Cane sugar is refined using bone ash. Beet sugar isn’t. I’ve read that some professional chefs prefer cane sugar, that it bakes and browns better. I’ve compared, and found that to be true as well. But it’s not usually vegan, so do your research on the brand, if it’s cane sugar you choose. I’m vegetarian, but use C&H cane sugar in my food and my hummingbird feeder. That’s what they sell at Costco.,Prior to going Vegan, I have made my family biscotti recipes for over 40 years….traditional using eggs, butter, etc. Friends loved them so much they thought I should start a business! Well, this recipe was super sticky (I added 1/3 cup more all purpose flour). I made them into 4 logs. They were uncooked in the middle after the 25 minutes. I suppose that is the purpose of baking them on each side. Traditional biscotti gets turned once. I will have to get a family consenus, but I did better with my original non-vegan recipe by substituting the flour and using egg replacer with Earth Balance Vegan “butter.”
