Here is a recipe for Kamish ( like biscotti) with dried cranberries . I love it! I have so many different recipes for Kamish….my moms, my grandmother’s, Goldie’s Kamish, https://marilyndishes.com/2017/02/22/goldies-kamish/, my aunt’s, Murray’s aunt’s & the list goes on.  I used a basic recipe for kamish, left out the coconut, chocolate & almonds & added the cranberries. They turned out really well. I have to put these in the freezer & only take some out at a time otherwise I could eat them all. I hope you give them a try!

Here is the recipe

Kamish with Cranberries

Ingredients

3 eggs

1 cup  oil

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

3 cups flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup dried cranberries

Method

Preheat oven to 350f

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper

1. In the bowl of a mixer, combine the 3 eggs, oil, sugar & vanilla & beat well until fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl often so that everything gets mixed well
2. In a separate bowl or your measuring cup, combine the flour & baking powder. Use a whisk or fork to stir this around to incorporate the baking powder into the flour
3. Add the flour to the egg mixture & mix well
4. Add the cranberries. Mix briefly just to get the cranberries mixed in. You can mix this by hand if you want to
5. Divide the dough into 2
6. Put the dough onto the cookie sheet & form logs with the dough about 2 inches thick and as long as they need to be to get the right width. You can put both logs on one cookies sheet but make sure there is some space between them
7. Bake at 350 for approx 25-30 minutes. Turn the oven off
8. Take the baking sheet out of the oven & slice the logs while they are hot
9. Separate the cut slices of kamish so that there is a bit of space between each slice & put the cookie sheet back in the hot oven. This dries out the kamish. Just leave them in there until the oven cools
10. Store in a cool place.  They last for a long time  If you are not going to eat them soon, they can be frozen

Enjoy!
