Almond Biscotti Toscani (Gluten-Free) image

I went to a gluten-free baking class and this was one of the featured recipes. I had never had biscotti before, so I don't really know how this compares. I liked it however. It was quite good dipped in my coffee and had just the right amount of crunch and sweetness. Makes a fair amount and supposedly keeps for a long time.

I'm allergic to almonds, so I substituted almond flour with oat flour. The biscotti still turned out great!

These almond biscotti were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biscotti turned out really hard. I think I might have overbaked them.
