Gluten-Free Vegan Biscotti - Jamie Feit Nutrition

A good gluten-free biscotti, say what? It’s definitely one of the things you miss most where cookies are ever-present. But what if you are not only gluten-free but also vegan? No worries this recipe is as easy as it is delicious and healthy. I have you covered! These biscotti are decadent and are super easy to make. You don’t have to give up your favorite foods just because you are gluten-free and vegan. I recommend making a double batch and keeping them in the freezer. They’ll stay fresh there for a few months, but I’d be shocked if they weren’t eaten up long before that. My kids adore them as a healthy snack. I can barely keep enough of them to last more than a few days. They are seriously DELICIOUS! You can mix everything together in the same bowl so there are even fewer dishes to wash. I like to make this recipe best with Bob’s Red Mill flour as it has proved to give the most consistent results. You also could switch up the recipe by using different add-ins. Our favorite is always mini vegan chocolate chips 😊 If however you are a fruit lover feel free to add 1 cup of chopped dried fruit instead to the batter. And to be decadent add some nuts! Anyway, these biscotti are going to be a hit in your home.
