Time 1h

Yield Makes about 40

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
3/4 cup dark-brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup chopped pitted dates
3/4 cup chopped toasted pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat in eggs and vanilla until combined. Add dates and pecans and beat until combined.
  • Divide dough in half and transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Form each half into a 2 1/2-inch-wide, 3/4-inch-tall log. Bake until dough is firm but gives slightly when pressed, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through. Let cool on sheet on a wire rack, 20 minutes.
  • With a serrated knife, cut logs into 1/4-inch slices on the diagonal and arrange, cut side down, on two parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets. Bake until biscotti are crisp and golden, about 15 minutes, rotating sheets and flipping biscotti halfway through. Let cool on sheets on wire racks.

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

These biscotti are a great way to use up leftover dates. I always have a few dates left over after I make a smoothie, and these biscotti are a great way to use them up.

These biscotti turned out perfectly! They're crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with a delicious flavor that's both sweet and savory. I love the combination of brown sugar and dates, and the walnuts add a nice crunch.
