Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Delicious Pistachio Cupcakes.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare 24 muffin cups with paper liners for easy removal.
Step 2
In a blender, blend roasted pistachios with half a cup of sugar until they reach a fine, powdery consistency.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, cake flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure a light texture.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, cream together one cup of sugar and softened butter with an electric mixer until the mixture is airy and fluffy.
Step 5
Introduce the eggs one at a time, making sure each is fully blended before adding the next.
Step 6
In another bowl, whisk together milk and vanilla extract, creating a fragrant mixture.
Step 7
Gradually incorporate the flour mixture and the milk mixture into the butter blend, alternating between the two, and start and finish with the flour.
Step 8
Mix gently until just combined, then fold in the ground pistachios for that delightful nutty flavor.
Step 9
Spoon the luscious batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full to allow for rising.
Step 10
Bake in your preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, signaling perfection.
Step 11
Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin cups for five minutes before transferring them to a wire rack, where they can cool completely and await their delicious debut.
Step 12
Enjoy the delightful aroma and the anticipation of tasting your homemade treats!.
