Gingerbread biscotti

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C, fan 160°C, gas mark 4. Line a baking sheet with baking paper.
2. Put the flour, sugar, spices, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, cranberries and pistachios in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
3. Add the eggs and treacle, then mix well until the mixture has come together into a sticky dough.
4. Dust your work surface with the extra flour and turn out the dough onto it. Knead gently for 1 minute, then divide in half. Shape each piece of dough into a 12cm-long log. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them, and bake for 30 minutes until firm.
