That's me... I love to do the biscotti thing.... mmmmm

I go for ANYTHING pumpkin pie flavored -- cookies, ice cream, bread... etc. etc. etc.

Hey, vfem, do I need a biscotti pan to bake that, or would something else work as well? Share tips on biscotti perfection (I've never made it, but I love to eat it).

I just bake my biscotti right on a baking sheet and it comes out perfect.

Since you love pumpkin so much, just put 1/2-3/4 C. of pureed pumpkin in the dough next time you make cinnamon rolls. (Don't forget to decrease the liquid by a bit.) Pumpkin cinnamon rolls are out of this world!

Oooh, pumpkin cinnamon rolls...

Ok, you guys! I was doing fine resisting the cinnamon rolls until you mentioned putting pumpkin in them! Crud!

My sentiments exactly.....but maybe I can force myself to hold out until I have my own fresh garden grown pumpkin to put in them....

Yes... a flat baking sheet is perfect. You roll it out... then flatten it after you lay the 'log' shaped down on the pan. So now its a long oval. Bake and remove from the oven... let cool for 5-8 minutes and cut into wedges. turn them on their sides and then rebake to crisp them up more.

Biscotti = twice baked

...in italian!

D. All of the above.


Put me in the middle and I'll eat my way out.

I bake all winter, but my stove isn't vented to the great outdoors, and it's well over 90 here. So not much baking during the summer,

Well it's 94 here right now and I just brought in some banana nut bread from the grill..........mmmmm not too shabby!! My Grandma's iron skillet can still put out some tasty grub.....

PeggySue, I have been looking for an excuse to go back to visit home in Austin! That is about to make me do it.

I have the bananas, I have the cast iron and I have the grill- any chance you would give up the recipe, pleeeeeeeease?
