Ingredients

  • cup vegetable oil

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 3 eggs

  • ¼ cup molasses

  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1 ½ tablespoons ground ginger

  • ¾ tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ tablespoon ground cloves

  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a cookie sheet.

  2. In a large bowl, mix together oil, sugar, eggs, and molasses. In another bowl, combine flours, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg; mix into egg mixture to form a stiff dough.

  3. Divide dough in half, and shape each half into a roll the length of the cookie. Place rolls on cookie sheet, and pat down to flatten the dough to 1/2 inch thickness.

  4. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool.

  5. When cool enough to touch, cut into 1/2 inch thick diagonal slices. Place sliced biscotti on cookie sheet, and bake an additional 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until toasted and crispy.
