Hướng dẫn

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.

Prepare the batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, chopped pistachios, granulated sugar, ground cardamom, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter (or coconut oil), eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Bake the cake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool the cake: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Serve: Once the cake is completely cool, dust the top with powdered sugar and garnish with extra crushed pistachios. Slice and serve as a delightful dessert or snack.

Cooking Tips:

For added flavor, you can soak the pistachios in warm water for a few hours before chopping them.

This cake pairs beautifully with a cup of tea or coffee.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
