What Is Biscotti?

Biscotti are Italian cookies baked twice to create their signature crisp, crunchy texture. Unlike soft cookies, biscotti are firm enough to dunk in coffee, tea, or another favorite beverage.

For this version, I added cinnamon, snickerdoodle nut butter, and a chopped cinnamon roll protein bar to give the biscotti a sweet, cozy flavor.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Gluten-Free Oat Flour

Gluten-free oat flour creates a soft, hearty base for these biscotti while keeping them gluten-free.

Almond Flour

Almond flour adds richness and helps give the biscotti a tender, slightly nutty texture.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon is essential for that classic cinnamon roll flavor. Feel free to add a little extra if you love a stronger cinnamon taste.

Monk Fruit Sweetener

Granulated monk fruit sweetener adds sweetness without using traditional granulated sugar.

Coconut Oil

Melted coconut oil helps bind the ingredients together and adds a subtle richness.

Snickerdoodle Nut Butter

Snickerdoodle nut butter gives these biscotti an extra layer of warm, sweet flavor.

Cinnamon Roll Protein Bar

A finely chopped No Cow Dipped Cinnamon Roll Bar adds even more cinnamon roll flavor and creates delicious little bits throughout the biscotti.

Sugar-Free White Chocolate

Finish the biscotti with a drizzle of sugar-free white chocolate. For completely vegan biscotti, be sure to use a vegan white chocolate.

How To Make Vegan Gluten-Free Cinnamon Roll Biscotti

Prepare The Biscotti Dough

Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, plant milk, vanilla extract, and monk fruit sweetener. Stir until well combined, then mix in the snickerdoodle nut butter.

In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and sea salt.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick dough forms.

Shape And Bake

Transfer the dough to your prepared baking sheet and shape it into one long rectangle about 1/2-inch thick.

Bake for 25 minutes.

Remove the biscotti from the oven and allow the rectangle to cool for about 20 minutes. This cooling period makes it much easier to slice the biscotti without breaking them apart.

Slice And Bake Again

Once the dough has cooled, carefully slice it into biscotti-sized pieces.

Place the slices cut side up on the baking sheet and return them to the oven. Bake for another 12 minutes, or until the biscotti are golden brown.

Allow them to cool completely. The biscotti will continue to crisp as they cool.

Add The White Chocolate Topping

Melt the white chocolate in the microwave using 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval to prevent it from burning.

Drizzle the melted chocolate over the completely cooled biscotti. Sprinkle the finely chopped cinnamon roll bar pieces over the chocolate.

Place the biscotti in the freezer for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has completely hardened.

How To Store Biscotti

Store these cinnamon roll biscotti in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keeping them chilled helps maintain the texture of the chocolate topping.

They make a great make-ahead snack because their crisp texture holds up well when stored properly.

How To Serve Cinnamon Roll Biscotti

These biscotti are especially delicious when served with:

• Coffee or espresso
• Chai tea
• Black tea
• Herbal tea
• Hot chocolate
• Your favorite dairy-free latte

For the ultimate cinnamon roll experience, dunk one into a warm cup of coffee or hot chocolate.

Tips For Making The Best Biscotti

Let The Dough Cool Before Slicing

Don’t skip the first cooling period. The baked dough needs time to firm up before you slice it.

Use A Sharp Knife

A sharp knife will help you make clean slices without crushing the biscotti.

Bake The Biscotti Twice

The second bake is what gives biscotti their characteristic crunchy texture. Make sure the sliced pieces are positioned cut side up before returning them to the oven.

Cool Completely Before Adding Chocolate

Make sure the biscotti are completely cool before drizzling them with white chocolate. Otherwise, the chocolate can melt and slide off.
