sunflower biscotti
Biscotti are one of those things I never really realized I liked... and now I make them all the time! I think this version is John's favorite. I love it because sunflower seeds are super cheep and don't take any extra time to chop up since they are already small :) I made this version using 1 egg and 1 flax egg, next time I'm making it with 2 flax eggs!
In case you don't know, a flax egg is amazing. Basically take 1 Tbs of milled flax seed and mix it with 3 Tbs of water. It works as a great binding agent and adds some amazing health benefits!

flax eggs? Interesting! I've never heard of them! Cool!
Where's the sunflower seeds :-) I'm sure you just stir them in with the other dry ingredients, how much did you use?
I've never tried making my own biscotti, but I want to! This recipe sounds great.
These look wonderful. This is my first visit to your blog. I stumbled here by chance and had intended only to say hello before moving on. I, instead, started reading your earlier posts and stayed far longer than I planned. I really like your blog and will be back as often as I can. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
These look so good. I made biscottis a while ago, and ate one everyday they were so delish! I can't wait to make more!!
This looks like a great recipe. I love using flax instead of eggs in baking, it works like a charm!
Curra- I'm so glad you like making biscotti too!
Jeanne- i know cool huh!?
Ashlie- HAHAHAHA 1/2 cup just added it in! whoops sorry about that!
brandi- totally give it a go they are so tasty!
Mary- thank you so much!! I'm so happy to hear you like it and had fun looking!!!!
kat- so glad you like them!
Jessie- i love flax eggs, seriously the best thing in baking :)
Please write your own cookbook! Youc oem up with some of the most interesting recipes. I would totally buy a copy.
Biscotti is one of those things on my list to make that I haven't yet attempted. Same with the flax egg. You're motivating me :)
I still haven't tried the flax-egg trick. I think I'm scared. I like flax and all, but one time I made some flax crackers and the flavor was overpowering. Not good.
These biscotti, however, look yummy. I love their deep, dark color.
That flax egg trick is a new one to me. Can't wait to try it!
(But I still hate biscotti..lol)
These are the healthiest biscotti I've ever seen! I'm dying to try the flax egg. I know you like Pad Thai - I posted my recipe - maybe you can put it to the test sometime!
I'm curious about the flax eggs.. can you basically do a 1:1 substitution for a real egg and does it change the flavor or consistency??
sunshine- that would be a dream if I could!
natalie- go for it girl!
diva- you'd never know it was in there! you can't taste it at all this way :)
mags- HA
cinnamon girl- ooo can't wait to check it out!
Evan b- it is a 1 to 1 replacement and it doesn't change the taste or texture! I've used the sub in muffins too :)
I'm loving this healthy recipe idea for biscotti, and thanks for the "flax egg" tip too!
Sounds easy enough, and pretty healthy too! I've been using a lot of sunflower seeds in savory dishes, so it might be fun to try them in sweeter things, too.
I saw that on the back of my bag of flax, and I was just wondering yesterday if it really worked because we were out of eggs and I was thinking of baking something. I chickened out... but now that I've read your post, I'll actually try it!
