Is it just me, or winter makes me slow? I guess I hibernate in winter.Lol! Well, no matter what, I can’t stop cooking or baking, and what can bring warmth more than a big mug of coffee and a sweet delight like my Raisin Pecan Biscotti.

When I want to be creative with Biscotti, I just think of the flavors I can add to a cookie or cake. Sometimes I don’t add any flavors to my biscotti, and just enjoy the natural buttery flavor.

However, today, and to be honest I made raisin and pecan biscotti, mainly because I was afraid the pecan might expire soon. Of course, you can add any nuts you like.

The dough is very forgiving, and is easy to work with, but in any case, if you think it’s little sticky, dust your hand with flour, then make a log out of the dough, and then press it down, no need for a rolling pin here.

Follow me on Instagram, and if you happen to make any of my recipes, please post the picture and mention me in your post, or use this hash tag #munatycooking. I would love to see your creation.

      The combination is just great, crunch from the pecan,sweet chewy texture from the raisins, in a crunchy biscotti 🙂

    I simply adore a good biscotti with coffee or tea as a snack. I've never tried one with raisins, though. I bet it's wonderful.
