Enjoy Sasha’s Crunchy Pistachio Cranberry Biscotti, a delightful treat perfect for sharing. This recipe brings together the satisfying crunch of pistachios and the tart sweetness of cranberries in a crisp cookie.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar and eggs until pale and slightly thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chopped pistachios and dried cranberries until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Turn the dough out onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape the dough into a log about 10 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  7. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the log is golden brown and firm to the touch.
  8. Remove the log from the oven and let it cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  9. Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  10. Carefully transfer the warm log to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, slice the log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  11. Lay the slices cut-side up back onto the baking sheet.
  12. Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes per side, turning once, until the biscotti are dry and crunchy.
  13. Cool completely on a wire rack before serving or storing.

Notes

  • This recipe works well with toasted pistachios for extra flavor.
  • Feel free to add a teaspoon of orange zest for a bright citrus note.
  • Store cooled biscotti in an airtight container at room temperature.
