Oooooo, almonds, almond extract, and cherry---yum. I'm one of those crazy people who like the ends that are a bit extra crunchy.

In the 54 years I’ve been baking, I’ve never made biscotti! Time for something new! Thank you, as always…

It's a must try crispy cookie, if you love crunchy this is it I love a corner biscuit or cornbread. I limit it to 1 batch otherwise I'd be passing through the kitchen for another.

I just noticed the cutting board! 😁

I love how you keep them standing up for the second bake. Maybe a small thing (I don't think so), but so much easier than going in, halfway through, to flip them over. Thanks for the great tip.

When it comes to traditions it all boils down to that it started with something and changed. For those that complain how do you think we got so many versions of dishes out there. Time allows tastes and supplies to curve how some folks do it. My Italian grandmother would make the "traditional" flavor but always did something different. Which one was right and which one was wrong? Neither, the end result was that someone was going to enjoy the love and time that was put into them. That is the real meaning of traditional food to me.

I usually make pistachio and cranberry biscotti. Delicious!

Hah, I love that Julie just goes right for it! Looks good

I made these today with orange zest and dried cranberries. All I can say is “Yum!”. I’ve had four so far.

They must be really good…so unusual to see Julie going for seconds…🥰🇦🇺

I absolutely love how you remind us to make things our own.

Julie's like a kid in a candy store when cookies are in the menu! I really like pistachios in mine but the orange sounds delicious. Rose water would also be nice.

Came here from a recommendation from Joshua Alexander, who created that gorgeous cutting board. Subscribed! Can't wait to go through some more of your recipes. I think I'll try this one this week! Thanks for sharing!

Anise seed is a really nice addition and works well with almond! Great cookie for dunking in coffee

Yum Yum give me some

That "Unfinished Kitchen" cutting board by Usihtat (Joshua Alexander) though! I watch entirely too many Canadian KZreadrs haha.

I think I'll try this and change it into gingerbread cookies with a twist, well more like a tornado of a twist! Thanks for the idea

Thanks! Going to try dried pie cherries with almond extract, sprinkled with almond bits. Think it’s going to be so good!

Biscotti and coffee is my absolute weakness. I could eat an entire pan of them in one sitting.

Well that seems much simpler than I expected. I'd always been under the impression biscotti was a more drawn out process, possibly because of my source's Italian grandmother 😄

Yum. I have apricot-pistachio in my cookie jar right now! I like using whole almonds (w the skins), toasted lightly, cooled, then cut into halves and thirds. More chunks in the biscotti!! Also have cake/cooling racks that fit my sheet pans, and plop the cut cookies on those -- air circulation so I don't have to flip them. I may have to switch to grams. I like how things are multiples of 250 here. Thanks!

Forreal forreal. I only know biscottis as an anise and almond thing, which I’ve never really liked. Philly local also. My whole view of them is changed now.

Oh, yeah...I love biscotti! Came up with a batch that had orange, dried cranberries, and walnuts in them...soooooo good!

I made dried cranberry and hazelnut biscotti a few years ago for Christmas gifts. They were great. I just make one thing now for gifts. Triple Gingerbread.

I used to make plain biscotti as teething biscuits for my kids. My favorite is with a can of mild chilies mixed and served with red and green jalepeno jelly and cream cheese. Beautiful for Christmas.

Amazing!!! I watched this when you first posted and promptly forgot to make them. I just made a batch and am thrilled with the outcome.

Wao really 🙂👍

Hazelnut and anise seeds are my favorite. Orange and almond sounds very nice, too, I'll give that a try.

Dried cranberry and orange…… popular here in Dallas. B.T.W. ….. love your shows!

I love baking, but never made these. Thank you for the recipe. I will make them and partially dip in dark chocolate to finish.

Awesome!

Yes! I will be making this. Awesome.

Here in sweden some put saffron and halfed almonds in for christmas season.

Hey Glen, great video. You can get a flour slide/chute that hooks onto the side of the metal bowl for the mixer, not 100% sure if it'll fit in the glass bowl, but it's GREAT. we call these biscotti cantuccini but probably cos of a large italian immigration in these area.

Top those with some icing made from powdered sugar and orange marmalade. Delicious.

I think I might make these for a quasi tiramisu

My favorite biscotti to make are white chocolate cranberry and gingerbread with chopped candied ginger.

New cooking term: equalish. I might try Craisins and almonds in mine.

My Italian Grammy would re-bake twice, biscotti laying on their sides (about 5-10 mins per side) rather than standing them up the whole 2nd bake. Hers where probably dryer and crispier than these and I loved them.

That is the traditional way to bake biscotti. The cookie was meant to be dry & crispy as they were served with coffee or wine. Then you would dunk the cookie in the beverage to soften it up and eat it that way. Biscotti was one of the traditional cookies we baked every Christmas season. Along with the Italian chocolate cookes sometimes referred to as "meatball" cookies. 🙂

The biscotti looked delicious. I like it with the orange zest and almond combination. Almond extract instead of vanilla would be good also. Like you say the variations are endless. Thanks for another great video.☃️

You should definitely try the European style of Christmas sweets.

Candied orange peel would be great too

U had me at biscotti

3:22 "There is nothing to worry about. Nothing at all. Just keep mixing them!" XD

nope...julie not waiting for an invitation...and going in for more! i get the hint she likes them! lol...they look awesome!

Oh dear, might have to add this to my Christmas baking….looks wonderful….

🎄❄️⛄️ So many varieties of biscotti; I’d like to add some chopped Terry’s Dark Chocolate Orange to this recipe; one could even make a GF version using 1-2-1 GF flour.

I love that Glen covers up the KitchenAid logo on the stand mixer and shares his frustrations with the decline in quality they've seen. We have three pre-Whirlpool KA stand mixers which need servicing roughly every 500 hours and no Whirlpool made KA, the two we had blew up in less than two years. I'll never buy another post-Hobart KA stand mixer.

Orange and almond is a nice combination of flavors. However, When I make biscotti, I like mine more colored and crunchy.

hey, im a fan, i have a new series suggestion. chicken nuggets from mcdonalds, if you can do that it will make my dreams come true

A December to Remember! ( Also use it as a 🎁 gift! )

My wife likes them bone dry with a firmness Bob Seger would appreciate (like a rock). I’ll have to give these a try as my first attempt and adjust from there. Haven’t found a store bought one she likes.

Pecan with citrus zest and maybe white chocolate chips. Was made out of desperation once but was not bad in the end.

Very tempting and delicious recipe. I like the way you represent your recipe. It was easy to understand and really made me satisfied. Keep on making such recipe video. ♥ Love from #mauryankitchen team.

Would be good made with finely chopped black walnuts and a dash of cardamom!

Can you substitute some of the flour with almond flour? I’d love almond-y flavor without the extract.

Yum, looks delicious Glen! I better get off my butt and make some too. Love cranberries and then once cooled, dip half each cookie into a quality white chocolate, or just drizzled with it!

I've never met 2 Italian families that use the same recipe for anything .

When is Canadian Christmas?

I thought Biscotti had anise extract in it?

I've only had biscotti a couple times. Both times it was too hard & fairly tasteless. They were commercially prepared biscotti though.

Here's a stupid question??.....What are the biscotti results if you don't bake them a second time?
