   Prior to going Vegan, I have made my family biscotti recipes for over 40 years....traditional using eggs, butter, etc. Friends loved them so much they thought I should start a business! Well, this recipe was super sticky (I added 1/3 cup more all purpose flour). I made them into 4 logs. They were uncooked in the middle after the 25 minutes. I suppose that is the purpose of baking them on each side. Traditional biscotti gets turned once. I will have to get a family consenus, but I did better with my original non-vegan recipe by substituting the flour and using egg replacer with Earth Balance Vegan "butter."

2. Not a review, but a warning: your recipe calls for cane sugar but it's supposed to be a vegan recipe. Cane sugar is refined using bone ash. Beet sugar isn't. I've read that some professional chefs prefer cane sugar, that it bakes and browns better. I've compared, and found that to be true as well. But it's not usually vegan, so do your research on the brand, if it's cane sugar you choose. I'm vegetarian, but I use C&H cane sugar in my food and my hummingbird feeder. That's what they sell at Costco.

3. I was pleasantly surprised at how wonderful this recipe was. I thought for sure with the applesauce that they would have some sort of funny texture. But no. The texture was very traditional for biscotti- perfect. The only thing that I did differently was use just 1 cup of toasted, chopped almonds. I found 1 1/2 cups to be too much for the dough to hold together well. 1 cup was perfect. GREAT vegan biscotti recipe!!!

4. A perfect recipe! I needed biscotti (as normal biscuits would not work) because a friend of mine had given me a bottle of Italian liqueur-wine. I made the biscuits to dip in the wine. Absolute heaven!<br/><br/>I followed the recipes quite closely, except I used less sugar. I didn't have any all purpose flour either, but it worked well with plain flour and baking powder.<br/><br/>The result was a genuine authentic Italian biscotti. To my mind, a very well developed effective recipe. Why would anyone want to add egg to it (:

5. Awesome recipe! This whips up a lot quicker than the tradition egg biscotti with the same flavor and texture. I used 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup Stevia in the Raw, and I added 1 cup chocolate chips instead of almonds. I will definitely be making this again!

1. These worked out great! I used hazelnuts instead of almonds, used 2t of vanilla, 1t of orange zest and 1t of anise seeds. My DH, who does not like most biscotti, loves these. I plan to make them for Christmas gifts this year.

3. These are fantastic! I will definitely make them again. If you like the flavour of the orange zest addition, try substituting Cointreau or Grand Marnier (orange liqueur) for the almond extract -- heavenly!! Also, if you don't have whole wheat pastry flour, you can use regular whole wheat flour with white pastry flour, and it will still work!
