Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter room temperature (1 stick)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ cup roughly chopped roasted salted pecans
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and maple syrup on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until well combined– the mixture may look curdled, but don’t worry!
- Add the flour and baking powder. Mix just until no large lumps of flour remain.
- Add the pecans and gently fold them into the biscotti dough.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a 10x3-inch log (about 1 inch thick).
- Bake the biscotti for 25-28 minutes, or until the exterior is golden brown.
- Remove the biscotti from the oven and carefully slice the log horizontally into 1-inch pieces– I recommend a serrated bread knife!
- Place the biscotti cut side down onto the baking sheet and return the pan to the oven for an additional 15 minutes, or until the biscotti are golden brown.
- Allow the biscotti to cool completely and then transfer them to an airtight container.
