About Biscotti cookies

Biscotti cookies are classic Italian treats known for their crunchy texture and elongated shape. Traditionally originated from Tuscany, these twice-baked cookies are made using simple ingredients like flour, sugar, eggs, and baking powder, often supplemented with almonds, pistachios, or dried fruits for added flavor and texture. Some recipes may include vanilla or citrus zest for extra aromatic appeal. Biscotti are low in fat because they typically use little to no butter or oil in their preparation, making them a lighter dessert option. However, their sugar content can be moderate to high depending on the recipe, so portion control is key. These cookies are often enjoyed alongside coffee or tea for dipping and are celebrated for their versatility, allowing variations to suit different tastes. Despite their sweetness, the use of nutrient-rich nuts can provide healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals, offering a slight nutritional advantage over other cookies.
