This is an extremely low fat cookie and low cal also! It has 1.5 grams total fat and 36 calories per cookie! This can be made in other flavors! I also make a higher fat version using chocolate chips and walnuts.

How to Make Low Fat Biscotti - Chai Flavored

Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl mix together the first 5 ingredients.
In a seperate bowl mix together the next 2 ingredients.
Then mix together the last 3 ingredients.
Now mix everything together. If the dough is too sticky too handle, add more flour, a little at a time.
Use a tablespoon measure (slightly heaping) to scoop out each cookie. Form each cookie into long strips like lady fingers (see photo)
Place each on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 16 minutes or til bottom of cookie is slightly browned. Do not over bake. This is not a crunchy, hard type of biscotti...thats why I don't double bake them. These are much easier on your teeth, but still great for dunking in coffee!
When cooled, store in an air tight container.
