Ingredients

  • 100 g shelled raw pistachios
  • 100 g sugar
  • 3 free-range eggs
  • 1 t vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Woolworths low-fat plain yoghurt
  • 100 g brown sugar
  • 160 g cake flour
  • 1 T baking powder
  • ½ t salt
  • 115 g butte, melted
  • Icing sugar, for dusting

Cooking Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Blend the pistachios and sugar in a food processor until fine.

In a separate mixing bowl, mix the eggs, vanilla, yoghurt and brown sugar until the sugar has dissolved.

Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into the wet mixture, alternating with the ground pistachios and sugar. Gently fold in the melted butter to form a thick batter.

Pour the batter into a greased 26 cm bundt tin and bake for 50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Cool, then serve dusted with icing sugar.

Chef's note:  “Pistachios give this cake a lovely green tinge. It’s not too rich and is delicious with coffee.”

    I tried this in early Jan for the first time and it was a hit! Since then, my friends crave it! And I’ve made it 5 other times for different occasions for them! Each time it’s a winner! So simple and easy to make – fluffy and even better the day after it’s baked!
