Ingredients
-
¼ cup coconut flour
1.6 oz (a generous ½ cup) ground chufa (aka tigernut flour)
2 tbsp potato starch
¼ cup psyllium husk fibre
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp nutmeg
pinch fine sea salt
¼ - ½ tsp liquid stevia
⅔ cup half-and-half cream
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 fl. oz butterscotch schnapps (make sure yours is GF if needed)
coarse or raw sugar, for topping
Directions
Preheat oven to 375F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment.
Combine all the ingredients just until blended and uniformly moist, but not sticky-wet (it should stick together when squeezed but may not form a ball while mixing).
Turn the mixture onto the cookie sheet and, with wet hands, shape the dough into a flat log about 8 ½” long and 3” wide.
Coat generously with coarse sugar and, using a bench scraper or a sharp knife, cut along the log on a diagonal into 10 pieces.
Gently move the biscotti apart so they are positioned upright with at least 1” of space between them.
Bake for 20 minutes, until edges just begin to brown. Reduce oven to 350F.
Turn each piece over onto one cut side and bake for 12 minutes, then turn over and bake another 12 minutes.
Turn off heat and leave the biscotti in the oven 1 hour.
