Gingerbread Biscotti
- 2 cups spelt flour (spelt, use the lightest kind available)
- 12 cup maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons crystallized ginger (crystallized, finely chopped)
- 12 teaspoon cinnamon
- 14 teaspoon ground cloves
- 14 teaspoon nutmeg
- 34 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 12 teaspoon vanilla
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients separately, then mix well to combine.
- If the mixture is too dry and still crumbly, add a little more water half a tablespoon at a time, just until the dough will hold together in a sticky ball.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide in two.
- Shape each half into two logs about 2 inches wide.
- Place them on an oiled cookie sheet and flatten to about 1 inch high.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Place on a cutting board, and cut into 1/2-inch slices on a sharp diagonal.
- Place the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet and bake for 10 more minutes.
- Turn them over and bake for 8-10 more minutes.
- Remove from oven.
- Biscotti may seem soft at first but they will harden as they cool.
