Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Waiting time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 85 g walnuts toasted and chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 100 g white sugar
  • 80 g light brown sugar
  • 1 ½ tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 165 g all-purpose flour
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. To make toasted walnuts, place them on a baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes at 350 F. Remove from the oven and let cool before chopping. (I did mine in an oven toaster and worked perfectly.)

  3. In a bowl, add egg, white & light brown sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat until combined. Add maple syrup and beat again. 

  4. In another bowl, add flour, cinnamon powder and baking powder. Mix until incorporated. Add this to the egg-sugar mixture. Beat until combined.
  5. Add toasted and chopped walnuts, and mix just until combined.
  6. Place your dough on a floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces. Form a log or long rectangle. (If the dough is sticky, add flour to your hands to get going.)
  7. Place the two logs on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until top is brown. (I baked mine for 35 minutes.)
  9. Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the logs to a cooling rack. Leave them there for 15-20 minutes. (Make sure not to leave them longer coz they will be difficult to slice.)
  10. Using a serrated knife, cut the logs into ¾ inch slices (diagonal or straight). Do it using a sawing motion.
  11. Return back the sliced pieces on the baking sheet (lying on their sides) and put back in the oven for 30 minutes to one hour with closed doors and oven turned off.

If you want to serve these with maple icing, please do visit the Genius Kitchen's recipe. I did not use it coz I find the biscotti sweet enough.
