My daughter and I love baking today all the time- but especially during the holiday season. It is not uncommon to come to our home during the week and finding the two of us with the mixer out figuring out what we are going to make. My favorite thing that I love that she asks is “What are we baking today Mama?” It makes my heart melt a little each time.
We try to make a variety of different recipes during the holiday season for cookie plates, hostess gifts and to be honest breakfast treats for us. This recipe for Apple Cranberry Almond Biscotti with a chocolate drizzle is a unique treat that we love to make. I use Quaker® Simply Granola Oats, Apples, Cranberries & Almonds in my batter and I love the texture that it gives these Italian cookies.
When I was little I was fortunate to live with my grandparents and I would be in my grandmother’s kitchen more often that not watching her cook. I am so thankful that I can share some of these same memories with my daughter as well.
