Almond Maple Popcorn Snack

Does popcorn ever get boring? Not for my kids. They could eat popcorn every night I think and not get bored by it. Here's a way to mix it up though if there's a need.

1/3 cup *popcorn Kernels

2 TBL Butter

1 TBL Maple syrup

3 TBL Almond Butter

Chopped almond pieces (optional)

We pop our popcorn in the microwave with a brown paper lunch bag for 2 minutes. Then on the stovetop, melt remaining ingredients together. Pour sauce over popcorn. Top with extra almond Pieces. This sauce never really set's up. It's kind of a gooey, messy thing to eat, but still delicious!

I love to decorate cookies! I've tried really hard to lay off the sugar cookies though, with it's pound of butter, and equal amount of sugar. I've been racking my brain to figure out what I could decorate for Halloween, that doesn't include sugar cookies. Then it came to me! Biscotti! A little unconventional? Maybe. A little healthy? Totally!

tep 1: Mix dough ingredients until Moistened. Step 2: On a floured surface, shape dough into two loaves.

Step 3: Bake loaves in oven at 350 for a bout 20-25 minutes. Step 4: Let loaves cool for about 15 minutes, and then slice diagonally and place on cookie sheet. Bake 15 more minutes at 300 degrees.

Pumpkin Biscotti Recipe

3 1/2 cups 7 Grain Flour (or whole wheat flour)

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

2 eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 cup agave nectar, or honey

Mix the dry ingredients together (flour, baking powder, salt, and spices). In a separate bowl, mix together wet ingredients (pumpkin, eggs, vanilla, and agave). Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ones until moistened.

On a flour surface, shape dough into two loaves and place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Take out of oven and let cool for 15 minutes. Slice diagonally, and bake again for 15 minutes at 300 degrees. Take out and let cool completely.

Yum! I am going to make these for our halloween party Saturday. I wonder, instead of logs, if you could cut out shapes and just reduce the cook time? We have some adorable halloween cookie cutters I want to try.

Of course Jenny! I was trying to think of how I would cut shapes after baking the loaves, and before they went back into the oven, but my slices weren't big enough for my cookie cutters. I don't know why I didn't think of cutting the shapes INSTEAD of the log step! Duh.... Let me know how it goes!

I wonder if brown rice flour would work for these instead of wheat? Any suggestions or tips?

Hi Rebecca! I don't have any experience with rice flour. If you try it though, let us know how it turns out.

Is it okay if I make the dough the night before I bake them
