Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour – Bob’s Red Mill
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup salted pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup sliced dried apricots
- 2 XL eggs
- 1/4 cup almond milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 320F / 160C
- Line the cookie tray with parchment paper.
- Mix flour, baking powder, and sugar.
- Add seeds and sliced apricots.
- Whisk eggs together with the milk till combined.
- Form a log of ±3-4” wide and place it on a baking tray.
- Leave some space down the length of your tray in order for some spreading of the dough.
- The mixture is rather wet, so make sure to cover your hands and the board you work on with a good helping of flour while shaping the dough into a log.
- Bake for ±30 minutes, or till you have a slightly golden crust
- Let it cool down properly before you cut the log into biscuits, about ½” thick.
- If you prefer, as I did, cut it again in half or you will end up with a very big and unmanageable biscotti.
- Turn down the oven to 300F / 150C
- Place the sliced biscotti on a cooling rack (cut side up) and continue to bake for ±10 minutes.
- Turn the biscotti over and repeat this process on the other side.
- Leave it in the oven and place a spoon in the door to keep it slightly open.
- I prefer to add this extra step in order for the biscotti to completely dry out for ± ½-1 hour.
- Store in an airtight container or ziplock bag.
I can promise you, this is the best ever GF biscotti I have ever concocted, and it’s so easy and quick to prepare. I only made a small batch, as I had to test it out, but believe me, next time I will make more of the same.

Apricots and pumpkin seeds….what’s not to like. Pinning for future reference!
Thanks Jennifer – this is my favorite biscotti at the moment.
You know what the best thing is about biscotti? My kids don’t like it, so all for me! This recipe looks delicious!
Thank you for your kind words. Must admit your kids may try this one when you make it.
Need to try this! Looks yummy!
Please do, its super easy and have to add yummy
I love BOTH of those flavors, but have never thought of combining the two flavors! Going to bookmark this recipe for later!
I think I am biased, as I made and concocted it, but I just ♥ it
I’ve not made biscotti before but I’m going to try this recipe. I will just have to work out the oven temperatures as in UK we use degrees centigrade, but google is a great friend on this occasion! I do have a handy measuring tool for cups etc as we don’t use those measurements in recipes either 😊 Can’t wait to get baking! 😊

I have an apricot chocolate chip recipe that I love using almonds. Will try pumpkin seeds!
Please let me know what you think, as I use a lot of pumpkin and other seeds in my baking
Looks yummy. Personally, I’d throw in some dried cranberries in there too. Make it more festive in color and flavor 😊
Herlina – yes that will be awesome, next time, I will add canberries. Just had to test and get the recipe working, but now that I know its good to go I will add other stuff and mix and match. Thanks for the idea
I adore apricot and pumpkin. But never had them together!
Thanks, please try it, this is out of this world, although I have to say so myself
