Yield 24 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

125 grams (approximately 1 cup) whole wheat flour
30 grams (approximately 1/4 cup) all-purpose flour
125 grams (approximately 3/4 cup) fine or medium-ground cornmeal
90 grams (approximately 1 cup) unsweetened fine coconut flakes
5 grams (approximately 1 teaspoon) baking powder
Pinch of salt
55 grams (2 ounces) coconut oil
125 grams (2/3 cup tightly packed) organic sugar
165 grams (3 large) eggs
5 grams (approximately 1 teaspoon) vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Whisk together the flours, cornmeal, coconut flakes, baking powder and salt in a bowl. 2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, or in a large bowl with a whisk or electric beater, beat together the coconut oil and sugar at medium speed for 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat together for another minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater. Turn off the mixer and add the flour mixture. Mix in at low speed until combined. The batter will be moist and sticky. 3. Using a spatula or a bowl scraper, scrape out half the batter onto the baking sheet. Moisten your hands so the dough won't stick, and form a log, about 10 inches long by 2 1/2 inches wide. Repeat with the other half of the batter. The logs can be on the same baking sheet but make sure there is at least 2 inches of space between them. 4. Place in the oven and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until lightly browned, beginning to crack on the top, and dry. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 20 minutes (or longer). Place on a cutting board and cut 1/2 inch slices straight across the logs. 5. Place the cookies on baking sheets and return, one sheet at a time, to the middle rack of the oven. Bake 15 minutes and flip the biscotti over. Bake another 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
