Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step
    Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. Step
    In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt.
  3. Step
    In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, butter and vanilla; stir into flour mixture until soft dough forms. Gather dough with hands and divide dough in half. Roll each dough half into a 10-inch (25 cm) long log that is about 2 inches (5 cm) wide. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
  4. Step
    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until firm to the touch and golden. Remove from oven and let pan cool on rack for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 300ºF (150ºC).
  5. Step
    Transfer each log to a cutting board; cut diagonally into 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick slices. Stand cookies upright on baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until light golden. Let cool completely.

Notes

Almond Variation:

Reduce vanilla to 1 tsp (5 mL). Add 3/4 tsp (3 mL) almond extract and 3/4 cup (175 mL) chopped raw almonds to the dough.

Cranberry Pistachio Variation:

Add 1/2 cup (125 mL) each dried cranberries and shelled pistachios to the dough.

Dipped Variation:

Melt 6 oz (180 g) white or milk chocolate chips in a bowl set over saucepan of hot water. Dip half of each biscotti into chocolate and let excess drip. Place on parchment paper lined baking sheet and let stand until chocolate is set. (For quicker results place the pan in the refrigerator until chocolate is set.)
