Take note
Handle the grapefruit peel with care as it can be bitter. Make sure to preheat your oven and be cautious while slicing the biscotti.

1

Preheat the oven

To kickstart this biscotti bonanza, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). It's time to heat things up!

2

Mix the dry ingredients

In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Give it a good mix to make sure everything is well blended.

3

Add the wet ingredients

Zest two grapefruits and add the zest to the dry ingredients. Squeeze the juice of one of the grapefruits into the mixture and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix it all together until you have a lovely dough forming.

4

Shape the dough

Grab your dough and divide it into two equal parts. Roll each part into a log shape, approximately 1 inch in diameter. Place the logs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure to leave some space between them.

5

Bake the biscotti

Pop those grapefruit-infused logs into the preheated oven and bake them for about 25-30 minutes. You want them to turn golden brown and feel firm to the touch.

6

Slice and bake again

Once the logs are cool enough to handle, slice them into diagonal pieces, about 1/2 inch thick. Lay the biscotti slices flat on the baking sheet and bake them for another 10-15 minutes, turning them halfway through. This will give them that perfect crunchiness.
