I substituted chocolate with PB Fit original and added 1/2 teaspoon of xanthan gum and used HU chocolate chips. Because the PB Fit has healthier coconut sugar, I reduced the Monk Fruit sweetener to 1/4 cup. This recipe and the chocolate biscotti are excellent.

In reply to Wendy. This is an old recipe that was created before monk fruit was available. I do agree that monkfruit/erythritol blends give the best taste!

I have made chocolate almond biscotti for years and switched to keto the beginning of this year so I wanted to attempt to still feel like it's Christmas. I found this recipe and it looked a lot like what I usually use other than the almond flour and the substitute sugar and I followed the recipe to a tee and I could not stomach the taste of the stevia powder and cinnamon combo. I threw that batch away and I replaced the sugar with monk fruit erythritol blend powdered sugar and left out the cinnamon and added a half teaspoon of almond extract with the vanilla. Added chocolate chips and sliced almonds. It was delicious. I guess that's why you try recipes before you decide to give them as gifts. I'm glad I did!!

These are completley amazing!!!! I made them exactly as the recipe but I switched out for coconut sugar ... I almost hate that I love them so much because after a long wait I am finally back in ketosis lol and I want to make other flavors now . Seriously the best texture and flavor BRAVO and thank you so much !!!

In reply to Anthony. I don't have a maple walnut biscotti recipe. Either can be used (with the right amount and ingredient combination) but I prefer using baking soda as many commercial brands of baking powder have undesirable ingredients.

In this recipe for biscotti you call for baking soda but in the recipe for the maple walnut biscotti it calls for baking powder. Any reason for the difference?

In reply to Amber. I'd just leave the xanthan gum out, but you could try about 1/2 teaspoon or so.

In reply to Lisa. Do you know about how much psyllium husk I may need to replace the Xanthan gum?

Hello, Thanks for the great recipe! I added some liquid stevia in addition to the granular sweetener, espresso powder & hazelnuts, delicious with a cup of coffee.

In reply to Lisa. Other changes are needed to use coconut flour in place of almond flour. But, you can sub sunflower seed flour one for one in place of almond flour. So, I'd try the sunflower seed flour. And psyllium is a good binding agent if you want to add a tiny bit (a little does go a long way).

My son is allergic to tree nuts but is fine with coconut. . .can I substitute with coconut flour or sunflower flour? If so, how much would you recommend, and is there any other modification that should be made?

P.S. Is psyllium husk powder just as good to use as a binding agent? Thanks!
