I found the recipe in the newly released Weight Watchers' cookbook: Takeaway at Home (2 ProPoints per biscotti).
Ingredients
1/3 cup (75 g) caster sugar
1 egg
1 cup (150 g) plain flour
1 tsp finely grated orange rind
1/3 cup (65 g) finely chopped dried figs
1/3 (40 g) finely chopped pecans (I'm a Pecan Fan!) |
| Ingredients to make the Fig and Pecan Biscotti |
Method
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C or 160 degrees C fan-forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
2. Using electric beaters, beat sugar and egg in a small bowl until thick and creamy. Fold in sifted flour until just combined. Fold in rind, figs and pecans.
3. Shape mixture on a lightly floured surface into 22 cm-long log. Place log on prepared tray and flatten slightly about 2 cm thick. Bake for 20 minutes or until firm. Cool.
4. Reduce oven to 140 or 120 fan-forced. Using a serrated knife, cut the log into 5 mm-thick slices. Place slices in a single layer on same lined tray. Bake for 20 minutes or until crisp, turning once halfway through cooking. Transfer biscotti to wire racks to cool.
