What is Dried fruit walnut biscotti?
Dried fruit walnut biscotti is an Italian twice-baked biscuit, made from a firm dough that is shaped into a log, baked, sliced and baked again. Walnuts add a mellow, earthy crunch, while dried fruit brings chewy, sweet pockets to the crisp slices. The second bake gives biscotti its characteristic dry texture and makes it sturdy enough for dipping.
In Italy, biscotti are often served with coffee, and they work just as well alongside a cup of tea or an espresso at home. They are carbohydrate-forward and energy-dense, with some fat from the walnuts and fibre from the fruit and nuts; 100 g provides 430 calories. Enjoy one or two with an unsweetened drink for a more modest snack, or serve them after a meal with coffee.
