Golden raisin biscotti with almonds

November 13, 2020

Golden raisin biscotti with toasted almonds are the perfect addition to your holiday baking list. If you are a biscotti lover, try this gingerbread biscotti too!

Because this recipe has a bit of liquid, fruit and butter, it is not quite as hard as most Italian biscotti.

It is still very crunchy, but one thing it is not, is dry. I sprinkled the top with a mixture of coarse sugar and flake sea salt for extra crunch.
