Fette biscottate
Italian 20 Mins Prep · 60 Mins Cook
- Grease a standard-size loaf tin.
- Combine the flour, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 40g of sugar, egg, yeast, water, butter and salt to form a sticky dough. Form into a sausage big enough to fit into the loaf tin. Cover the dough and allow it to rise until it’s quite puffy, approx. 2 hours.

- Brush the top of the dough with the milk then bake for 30 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
- Slice into thin pieces 1cm wide then place on baking sheets.
- Mix the remaining cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over the toast.
- Preheat the oven to 160°C, gas mark 3.
- Bake the fette biscottate for 30 minutes until crisp.
- Serve alongside jam or Nutella.
