Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour

- 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or preferred sweetener
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped almonds
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together eggs and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a dough forms.
- Add Chocolate and Nuts: Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips and chopped almonds into the dough.
- Shape the Biscotti: Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
- Slice and Second Bake: Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (162°C). Slice the logs diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces. Arrange the slices cut side down on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until crisp.
