How to Make Peanut Butter Biscotti

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, lightly beat 2 large eggs. Stir in ½ cup creamy peanut butter and 2 tablespoons water until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time, if needed, to form a smooth, slightly sticky dough. Stir in ½ cup chopped peanuts.
  5. Divide the dough in half. Shape each half into a log approximately 12 inches long and 3 inches in diameter. Place logs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving 3-4 inches between them. Gently flatten the logs slightly.
  6. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the logs are lightly golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  7. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
  8. Using a serrated knife, cut each log at an angle into ¾-inch thick slices. Arrange the slices, cut-side down, on the baking sheet.
  9. Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the biscotti are golden brown and crisp. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
  10. Enjoy your delicious Peanut Butter Biscotti!
