What do you do when you have left over apples and you need something sweet but simple for breakfast? Well, biscotti is always a good choice – and Apple Pie Biscotti sounds absolutely decadent.
I had some apples in the fridge for about two weeks and wanted to use them up. I have been having my apple and oatmeal breakfast but the apples only had a day or so of life left in them, so I decided to bake up some biscotti. This recipe is so simple and transformable, so making an apple pie type was an easy leap for me.
I made this biscotti easier on myself by not doing separate bowls for dry and wet ingredients. I mixed all the dry then made a well in the middle and added the applesauce, vanilla and milk. I mixed it all then added the chopped apples. You can make it even easier on yourself by adding the apples along with the wet; waiting until after everything is mixed, it is more like squishing the apples into the batter. Bake the first part for 30 minutes at 350 degrees; take out and let set for 10 minutes and lower to 300 degrees. Slice in half then into slices (I normally get 21 out of mine) then bake for 30 more minutes. Enjoy!
