Instructions

Makes: about 54 biscotti

Preheat oven to 325øF. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat it with nonstick
spray.

In a bowl, whisk flour, sugar, cornmeal, ginger, baking powder, baking
soda and salt.

In a large bowl, whisk eggs, egg whites, orange zest and orange juice
until blended. Add dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Divide dough in half and place on prepared baking sheet. With dampened
hands, form each piece into a 14-by-1 1/2-inch log. Bake for 20 to 25
minutes, or until firm. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool.

Reduce oven to 300ø.

Cut logs diagonally into 1/2-inch slices. Arrange, cut-side down, in a
single layer on 2 ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or
until golden brown and crisp. (Rotate baking sheets if necessary to ensure
even browning.) Transfer biscotti to a wire rack to cool. Store in an
airtight container.

NOTES : These biscotti were very quick and easy to prepare. Since the
calorie count was so low, I sliced these biscotti at a deep angle
which resulted in a respectable-sized cookie (27 cookies instead
of 54).
