Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F.
  2. Mix the whole-wheat pastry flour, salt, and baking powder in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Add the sugar and beat with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla to the avocado mixture and beat until well combined.
  5. Gradually stir the dry mixture into the avocado mixture until moist and the dough comes together.
  6. With floured hands, roll the dough into a log about 1/2 inch thick and 12 inches long.
  7. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and bake the log for 20-23 minutes until it is lightly browned and the outside has a slight crust.
  8. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool for 5 minutes.
  9. With a very sharp, serrated knife, cut the log diagonally in slices about 1/2 inch thick.
  10. Lay the biscotti slices flat on the baking sheet—don’t overlap. Bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, flipping each piece halfway through to ensure even crispiness. You’ll know they’re ready when they feel dry and crisp to the touch.
  11. Transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
  12. While the biscotti are cooling, place the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for about 1 minute, stirring every 20 seconds, until the chips are melted.
  13. Unwrap the candy canes, place them in a Ziploc bag, and bash them with a rolling pin (or your weapon of choice) until they are evenly broken into small pieces.
  14. Once the biscotti are cool, dip them one at a time into the melted white chocolate, spreading evenly to cover half the cookie with the back of the spoon.
  15. Sprinkle with broken pieces of candy cane. Repeat for remaining biscotti. (You may need to melt the white chocolate again every so often.)
