🍽 Equipment

Below is a list with links to the equipment used to make biscotti.

😋Storage

Store biscotti in an airtight container, preferably a tin, which will help to maintain a crispy biscotti. Place parchment paper or waxed paper between each layer of pumpkin biscotti cookies to keep the icing intact. If stored properly, they can last for up to 2 weeks.

Can Homemade Biscotti Be Frozen?

Yes, it can! The best way to store them in the freezer is an airtight glass or metal container separating layers with parchment paper or waxed paper. Frozen biscotti should be used and eaten within 3 months of the freezing process.

How to Defrost Frozen Biscotti

Defrost the biscotti outside of the container that it was frozen in. If they're a bit soft when thawed simply place them in the oven set at 350 for 5 minutes or in the air fryer set at 325 for 3 minutes.
