Chewy Orange and Hazelnut Spelt Biscotti

Recipe #297888 | 1 hour | 30 min prep | SERVES 30 , 30 biscotti (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Nina la Danoise

These are yummy, low fat, and do not need the traditional double baking! Always use pasteurized eggs in any chewy baked good. In the US I have only found one producer of whole pasteurized eggs, Davidson's, see their web-site for a store near you: http://www.safeeggs.com/ Cookies will last well if stored in layers of wax paper in an airtight tin. We eat them rather fast, but with a double batch I have managed to have cookies for almost 30 days - and they stayed fresh and moist.
