It is the time for ginger everything. These gingerbread biscotti are crunchy, mildly sweet, well spiced and fun to dunk in your favorite cup of tea of hot chocolate. I dunk these in our evening Masala Chai. Fancify the biscotti with melted white or dark chocolate drizzle or icing of choice. Or coat the ends in melted chocolate. These crisp biscotti cookies have cranberries, almonds and candied ginger. Use finely chopped nuts, ginger etc so that the biscotti are easier to slice. For a stronger molasses flavor, use 2 tbsp molasses and 2 tbsp nut butter.

I use nut butter in these biscotti. They can be made completely oil-free. To make these without nuts, use seed butter or tahini or use 2 tbsp oil. The recipe can be easily doubled. Melt some vegan white or dark chocolate and drizzle it on the biscotti. Wrap and gift!
