Crunchy Cinnamon Maple Oatmeal Biscotti are great as a snack or breakfast biscotti to dunk in your morning tea or coffee. You will love the sweet maple and spicy cinnamon flavors!
Why you'll love this recipe
Biscotti are a wonderful cookie for care packages and cookie jars! They are great for dunking and crunching, are super easy to make and, if you don’t eat them first, they last for an incredibly long time.
Biscotti also tend to be sturdy and have a long shelf life. Perfect qualities for care package cookies.
This healthy biscotti recipe reminds me of breakfast. It's a bowl of cinnamon maple oatmeal disguised as a crunchy cookie.
Oat biscotti are light and airy enough to be munched on without a dunking beverage, but go well with coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and milk.
Instructions
- Whisk together all the dry ingredients. Then add all the wet ingredients, except the egg white, and mix to combine. Finally mix in the egg white. Batter will be very wet.
- Transfer the batter onto the baking sheet and form into a 12” x 4” rectangle. If batter is too wet to form with lightly floured hands, then use a spatula.
- Bake until golden and firm to the touch, 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside until cool enough to handle, about 10-15 minutes. Using a serrated knife, ct the loaf on a diagonal into ⅓” slices.
- Lie the biscotti cut side down on the baking sheet and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes.
Storage
Store at room temperature in an airtight container for several weeks.
I was worried because the resulting “log” was only about ½” thick and about the consistency of cake batter. It also looked nothing like the pictures accompanying the original recipe.
Tips
- The batter for these biscotti is very moist. Just spread it onto the parchment lined pan with a spatula.
- The batter log will be only about ½” thick and about the consistency of cake batter.
- The loaf will rise a bit while baking and produce perfectly respectable looking biscotti.

I only make biscotti around the holidays...but it is such a fun thing to make 🙂 I love shaping/cutting the dough!

Oh, Jennifer, biscotti are awesome year round. They stay fresh practically forever, can be made in gazillion flavors from exotic to bland and are so easy to bake. Plain ones are great with tea if you are feeling queezy 😉 AND if you bake them hard, they even make good teething biscuits (for future reference)! 🙂
