PUMPKIN BISCOTTI (Gluten Free)
A couple of years ago I purchased the biscotti from Costco, I quickly became hooked. I had dental problems for years, so it was no surprise to me that I hadn’t had this crunchy flavorful delight before. I honestly had no idea what I was missing. Last fall my daughter and I were playing around with recipes, and we found one that we of course had to alter to add some of our favorite ingredients and Pumpkin Biscotti as we know it was formed. These have beautiful flavor, texture and they are gluten free! An overall win in our books.

Why Gluten Free
If you are new to my page, welcome. The reason why we are doing a deep dive into gluten free recipes this year is because my daughter. She is entering adulthood and has to eat gluten free. She has a few medical reasons why, and as a mom my goal is to help her build a recipe book that she can use over the years. So a lot of the recipes we are forming together and tailoring to her tastes, as well as ours, and sharing them with all of you. Gluten free food is expensive and has a history of being chalky in my opinion. Our goal is to make it affordable to make at home and taste delicious. You can learn more about what gluten is and why some people can’t have it here.
Sourcing Bulk Ingredients
Most of my ingredients I try to source in bulk. I do enough cooking and baking from scratch that it is more cost effective for me to purchase in bulk. If you are interested in building your pantry on a budget, I highly suggest checking out Azure Standard. I can order from them once a month if I want to, which I don’t need to do that, and meet a semi truck at a specific drop location. Everyone purchasing helps unload all the product for that drop and then we take our goods and head home. I have saved so much money this way. For example the items I have in bulk for this recipe are: sugar(used to make vanilla sugar and brown sugar), baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt, gluten free flour and allergen free white chocolate chips all of which I get from Azure Standard. The vanilla I get in bulk from a co-op and I make my own vanilla extract.
If you have not started to purchase in bulk I highly suggest taking the time to do a price comparison, especially on spices and flours, before jumping into your holiday baking. Now let’s get to the recipe…
Pumpkin Biscotti
Pumpkin Biscotti (Gluten Free)
Equipment
- 1 Paddle for Kitchen Aid I highly suggest Stainless Steel
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup vanilla sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 4 tbsp softened unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 1/4 cup gluten free all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Mix butter and sugars and until light and fluffy.
- Add pumpkin puree, egg and vanilla. Mix well.
- Add pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, salt and flour. This should form a thick dough.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place dough on baking sheet in one large rectangle. It should look like a rectangle log with squared off edges. About half an inch tall and 4 inches wide.
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- Remove from oven let cool for 5-7 minutes.
- Carefully create slices the width of the dough. The thickness of your slices (1/2-1 inch) will determine how many slices you have. I get about 15.
- Lay slices cut side down on baking sheet.
- Bake for 25 – 30 minutes
- Remove from oven and allow to cool.
- Melt white chocolate. I do about 1 minute in the microwave in a glass container, stirring every 20 seconds.
