    | 1. Preheat your oven to 325* F and lightly oil one large or two smaller cookie sheets. | 2. In a large bowl, whisk together flours, salt, baking powder, and cardamom powder if using. | 3. In another bowl, mix together the agave or sugar, applesauce, oil, and extracts. (Use more oil for a softer biscotti, less oil for a crunchier biscotti). | 4. In thirds, gently add and stir sugar mixture into the flour mixture. Batter will be very thick. Add the nuts and fruits. Finish the mixing with your hands. | 5. With floured hands, shape the dough into two 3-inch wide “logs” about 3/4 inch thick, with the ends squared off. (Measure if you have to; I did!). | 6. Bake the logs for about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven, and cool on a wire rack. As they cool, drop the oven temp to 300°F. | 7. Cool the logs on a rack for 15 minutes. Cut the logs carefully with a sharp knife straight across into 1/2 inch wide slices. | 8. Place the slices cut side down on the cookie sheets and bake for 5-10 minutes more. | 9. Turn the slices over and cook 5-10 minutes more, or until golden on bottom. NOTE: The biscotti might look under-cooked. They almost certainly are not. They will harden up as they sit. | 10. Cool on racks, then store in an airtight container for up to two weeks. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
