How to Make Jelly Bean Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla extract, and oil.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the jelly beans.
  6. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a log about 12 inches long and 2 inches wide.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscotti is lightly golden brown.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  10. Using a serrated knife, slice the log diagonally into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  11. Arrange the slices cut-side down on the baking sheet.
  12. Bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the biscotti are crisp and golden brown.
  13. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
