  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda Helps the biscotti to rise perfectly.
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon This adds a warm spice that complements the blueberries.

  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  9. Allow to cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
