With Summer still not yet in sight, we can still wiggle in some indulgence on a cold wintery afternoon!
My ideal treat would be some biscotti – crunchy, twice-baked Italian biscuits that are best eaten with a cup of coffee or tea for dunking.
These vegan biscotti are egg-free, crunchy, full of flavour and easy to make. They would also make great gifts as they keep for quite a while, but make sure that they are sealed up in an airtight jar.
Make sure that the milk is room temperature, or even lukewarm, otherwise you risk the coconut oil re-solidifying.
Don't try slicing the logs before the 15 minutes cooling time is up otherwise they will be hard to slice and crumbly.Ingredients

Notes
Biscotti are tricky to slice neatly, and they will crumble a bit no matter what you do. You need to make sure that you use an incredibly sharp serrated knife, and don’t put too much pressure on the biscotti – try and gently ‘saw’ through the crust.
Side Note
If you want softer biscuits you can reduce the second bake time a little; and if you want really super crunchy ones you can increase it a bit or leave them in the oven after you turn it off.
You can also experiment with different fruit and nuts as you please.
Enjoy!
