How to make it

  • Preheat your oven to 300 F (aka 150 C).
  • In a good sized bowl, mix together oil and sugar until it is well blended. Now mix in the vanilla extract and then beat in the eggs.
  • Combine salt, flour, and baking powder. Slowly stir this into the egg mixture. Mix in the cranberries and nuts by hand.
  • Divide your dough in half. Create two logs (about 12x2 inches) on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. The dough might be sticky, so wet your hands with cool water.
  • Bake for about 35 minutes in the preheated oven. When read the logs will be a light brown.
  • Remove from oven, and set aside to cool for approximately 10 minutes. Reduce the oven heat to 275 F (135 C).
  • Cut the logs on diagonal into 3/4 inch thick slices. Lay on their sides on parchment covered cookie sheet and bake about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Enjoy!
Another delicious shot!   Close

    Stumbled onto your recipe. It sounds wonderful. I will definitely try this. At Christmas each year I make an Italian version...a recipe of my mom's, made with chopped hazlenuts and anise extract. This is a great alternate. I gave it a 5. Thanks. Lorraine

    Love Biscotti. Being Italian biscotti was often served at breakfast and after dinner. Never had it with cranberry. I must make this.
