Place raw sugar into TM bowl for 3 seconds on speed 9 to make caster sugar. Remove and set aside.
Place orange peel into TM bowl for 10 seconds on speed 10. Remove and set aside. Quick wash TM bowl with water and dry it.
Place butterfly in TM and add 3 eggwhites for 3 minutes on speed 4 until soft peaks form. it takes about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Gradually add caster sugar until white and glossy.
Add orange grated peel, vinilla extra and baking powder for 3 seconds on speed 4.
Remove mixture from TM into a bowl, add sifted flour and fold in gently. Add in Pistachio and Cranberry and fold in gently.
Place mixture on baking paper to shape it about 3cm x 20cm rectangular shape (the mixture is very sticky, using baking paper to shape the mixture is easy and keep your hands clean) or place mixture into lightly graeased 3cm x 20cm rectangular biscotti tin.
Place mixture log in 180 degress C oven for 30-35 minutes until lightly golden and firmed.
Remove biscotti log from oven and allow to cool completely. Use a very sharp knife to cut the log into 3mm thick slices.
Place slices on a flat baking tray with baking paper on it. Bake in 150 degrees C for 20-25 mintues or until dry, lightly golden and crisp.
Tip
Reduce sugar to your taste, because cranberry will add adtional seewtness in biscotti.
Great for Christmas gift.

Comments
cheeseplease: I am sorry for late reply because I did not received the message notification. I do apologise. I haven't try using almond meal flour, you are always welcome to change ingredients for your liking.
Hi, just a question - the ingredients has got plain flour listed? Shouldn't it be almond flour/meal?
pennyi: I am sorry to hear that your mixtures was very dry. I suggested that you can try to add one more egg whites. Sometime egg sizes are different and I use 700-800g eggs.
I must have done something wrong. The mixture was very dry and I removed most of the cranberries and pistachios so I could form a log! It was rock hard after the first cook and didn’t improve with the second cook.
Does anyone have any tips for me?
This recipe showed how adaptable your plain almond biscotti recipe is. Have since made these with varing combinations or nuts and dried fruits.
I use GLAD Baking paper, it is non-stick ever.
I've just made this recipe, is there a trick to not getting the baking paper not to stick to the log when cooking?
