Sicilian Pistachio Cake recipe Preparation time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

8.8 oz pistachio flour (of which 1.75 oz to garnish cake) (250 g pistachio flour)

3.52 oz of flour (100 g flour)

4.6 oz butter (130 g butter)

8.11 oz of sugar (230 g of sugar)

6 medium-sized eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla

16 g baking powder

Procedure for your authentic Sicilian Pistachio Cake Recipe:

Since our pistachio cake recipe is quite quick to make, we recommend preheating your oven to 350°F beforehand. This ensures that the oven is ready for baking as soon as you finish preparing the ingredients. Beat the eggs with sugar for a minimum of 10 minutes, which is essential to achieve a soft and airy cream.

Pour previously melted butter, which can be prepared in a saucepan or microwave. Incorporate 7 oz of pistachio flour. Gently blend the pistachio flour from the bottom to the top to prevent the mixture from losing its volume or “deflate”. Add the flour that has been sifted beforehand. Include baking powder and continue mixing.

Butter a baking pan with a diameter of 26 cm and dust it with flour. Pour the mixture.

You’re all set to bake! By now, your oven ought to be at the proper baking temperature. Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes.

Wait at least half an hour before opening the oven door.

You can use a toothpick to check the baking after 30 minutes. Your cake is ready if the toothpick comes out clean.

Turn off the oven and let the cake rest inside the oven for 10 min with the oven door slightly open.

Garnish your Sicilian Pistachio Cake with pistachio flour!

Hello! This looks like a delicious cake and recipe that I would love to try but I have a question: what do you mean by “pistachio flour”? Is it simply grated pistachio or a special type of flour found at a baker’s supply?
