Pistachio & Orange Biscotti – Keto

Ingredients

Dough

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tsp psyllium husk
  • 1/4 cup protein powder (I used chocolate flavor)
  • 1/4 cup erythritol (or sugar for non-keto)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cardamom
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup slivered pistachios
  • 1/4 cup dried orange peel, chopped (for keto, make sure the orange slices do NOT have added sugar!)

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, melted
  • 1 tbsp slivered pistachios
  • 1 tbsp dried orange peel, chopped
  • 1 tbsp dried rose petals
  • Sea salt

Instructions

  1. Mix the dough ingredients together & shape into a long loaf. Bake for 22 minutes at 350.
    • The dough is sticky! You might want to wrap it in plastic wrap, then shape it & flip it on a parchment lined baking tray.
  2. Let the biscotti sit on the baking tray for 10 minutes, and reduce the heat to 325.
  3. Slice the loaf diagonally & place each piece on its side. Bake for another 10-12 minutes.
  4. Once the biscotti is room temperature, dip the biscotto in the melted chocolate. Sprinkle the other toppings on top & let the chocolate set.
