Vegan biscottis
With one single dough, make all the biscottis you can imagine! This recipe is so flexible… The texture is light and crunchy and they taste amazing… I am making 3 variations : pistachio & orange blossom, chocolate & coconut and finally raspberry with pine nuts… But everything starts with the same dough.
