Ingredients you’ll need for paleo almond meal biscotti
Almond meal: Be sure to use almond meal and not almond flour, it allows for the perfect texture! Almond meal is made from unpeeled almonds while traditional blanched almond flour is made from blanch and peeled almonds.
Slivered almonds add the perfect crunch and add additional nutty flavor.
Tapioca flour is a starchy flour that adds a chewy and crisp crunch to these biscottis
Baking powder will help lighten up the texture of these biscottis and increase the volume!
Egg in this recipe helps hold everything together and adds moisture.
Pure maple syrup adds the perfect amount of natural sweetness!
Coconut oil adds moisture and is the perfect substitute for butter or fat in baking.
Chocolate chips are used to make the melted chocolate. These dairy free chocolate chips are my favorite!
