How I Came Up With the Perfect Gluten-Free Biscotti Recipe
You might wonder how I came up with the perfect GF biscotti recipe. Here’s the story.
Before creating The Biscotti Company, I spent 17 years coaching and counseling others on maximizing their full potential. My assistant, Ivana, had celiac disease. Ivana’s friends often invited her over for dinner parties, but they never considered her dietary needs. As a result, Ivana would always feel left out, like she couldn’t fully participate in the festivities.
Of course, being a life coach at the time, I had to fix the problem. So the next time she was invited to one of my dinner parties, I ensured she had equal food options to choose from, and one of those options was gluten-free biscotti.
Biscotti are simple enough to make gluten-free. You must substitute wheat flour for gluten-free flour and add almond flour to the mix. And trust me when I say these little beauties are just as delicious as their wheat flour counterparts.
