These crunchy gingerbread biscotti are so fun to make in a Christmas tree shape over the holidays! The kids loved decorating these, even though they think the idea of biscotti dipping into coffee is gross LOL.

I love to make biscotti year round, but I have only written one of the recipes on the blog…note to self to write up my gluten free chocolate biscotti next! You will also want to try this Gluten Free Candied Ginger Biscotti soon…it is drenched in white chocolate and is so good dipped in coffee!

The stars of this recipe are from a company I love, Rodelle. They make incredible vanilla, extracts, and organic spices, which make baking so easy. They are what make this gingerbread biscotti soooo good!

You can make your holiday biscotti shaped like Christmas trees as I did, or you can make them the regular shape. Either way is so festive for the holidays.

Shopping List for Gluten Free Gingerbread Biscotti:

• Gluten Free Flour Blend (I used King Arthur’s Gluten Free Blend for this recipe, but Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten Free Blend, Pamela’s Baking Mix, and Authentic Foods MultiBlend all work wonderfully too!)
• Brown sugar or coconut sugar
• Rodelle vanilla, organic ginger, and organic cinnamon
• Allspice and clove
• Butter
• Egg
• Molasses

The first step to making this gluten free gingerbread biscotti recipe is to add your wet ingredients to a mixer. Mix on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium.

TIP: Slowly add the dry ingredients, 1/4 cup at a time. Make sure your mixer is on low or flour will fly everywhere!

When ready, your dough will be somewhat stiff.

How thick do you roll your biscotti dough?

Roll your biscotti dough into a rectangle (or as close as you can get.) Mine sort of turned out more oval shaped. You want your dough to be 1-inch to 1 1/2 inches tall, depending on how thick you want your biscotti.

Now you get to make a decision. Do you want to shape your biscotti like Christmas trees, or like long oval shaped biscotti?

We are making tree-shaped biscotti 🙂 Make very light cut lines in your unbaked biscotti dough. I cut through maybe 2 millimeters. It is just so you have lines to follow when you are partway through baking the biscotti.

How do you bake biscotti?

The next step is to bake the gingerbread biscotti for 20 minutes at 350F degrees. Remove the biscotti from the oven and use a sharp knife to cut all the way through on the cut lines.

Lay each piece of the biscotti on its side so they are standing up tall (not on the top or bottom). Bake the biscotti on its side for 8 minutes and then remove the pan from the oven. Flip the biscotti to the other side and bake an additional 8 minutes.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a cooling rack.

Ways to decorate your biscotti:

• Drizzle on icing and sprinkles
• Drizzle on melted white chocolate
• Dip the biscotti in white chocolate

Enjoy!!
