Prep 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Chilling dough 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almonds - blanched, and toasted
  • ¾ cups dark chocolate chips
  • cups Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tbsp Espresso Powder
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • cup Cocoa Powder
  • ½ cup Granulated Sugar
  • ¾ cup Plain Yogurt - plant-based
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar - soft
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ tsp Almond Extract

Instructions

  • Toast the almonds. I place them in a frying pan or skillet over low heat and toast, turning them frequently once you can see them starting to colour. Leave to cool.
  • Place chocolate chips in a food processor or mini blender.
  • Sift together flour, cocoa, espresso powder, baking powder, salt and white granulated sugar into a large bowl.
  • In another small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, brown sugar and extracts.
  • Add half a cup EACH of the sieved flour/cocoa mixture and toasted almonds to the chocolate in the food processor, and blitz until you have a powdery mixture.
  • Add this, along with the remaining almonds back to the bowl with the flour/cocoa.
  • Now mix in the wet ingredients. The dough will be very stiff, and you will need to work at it to get it thoroughly mixed.
  • Separate the dough into two halves.
  • Place a piece of clingfilm, roughly twice the length of one of the balls of dough, onto a work surface.
  • Place one half of the dough onto the clingfilm, and shape into a log, about 3" wide, and 8" long. Wrap the clingfilm around it tightly and refrigerate for a least an hour. Repeat with the other half of the dough.
  • To bake, preheat your air cooker to 180c. Place one of your dough logs onto a piece of tinfoil and place into your air fryer.
  • Bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove from air fryer and leave to cool for another 15 minutes.
  • Using a serrated knife, cut into slices.
  • Now preheat the air fryer to 150c and place the slices onto the piece of foil, cut side up.
  • Bake for 5-10 minutes (check after 5 to see if they feel dry). Now carefully turn them over and bake for another 5-10 minutes.
  • Gently remove from the air fryer and, discarding the foil, place the individual biscotti onto a cooling rack. They will harden up as they cool.

Please note that where the recipe asks for milk, butter or yogurt, this refers to any plant-based version that you prefer.
