Flourless Pistachio Cake

Flourless Pistachio Cake.

Flourless Pistachio Cake is something different because usually all you see is flourless chocolate cake… so if you are sick of that you can try this!

Ingredients:

2 cups almonds

1 1/2 cups pistachios

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon ground cardamom

1 tablespoon finely grated lemon rind

2 eggs

5 egg whites

pinch of salt

Soak almonds in hot water for 30 minutes. Drain. Pre-heat oven to 160C. Grease a deep 22cm (9 inch) round springform cake pan and line with baking paper. Place drained almonds, pistachio, sugar, cardamom and salt in the bowl of a food processor and process until the mixture resembles coarse bread crumbs. Transfer to a large bowl. Add egg, egg white and lemon rind. Mix well. Spread mixture into prepared pan. Smooth the top. Bake in the pre-heated oven for approximately 1 1/4 hours until the top is golden and the cake has started browning around the edges. Remove from the oven and cool cake in the pan.

Serve warm.

Preriscaldate il forno a 160°. Ungete una tortiera di 22 cm e coprite con carta da forno.

Mettete le mandorle, pistacchi, zucchero cardamomo e sale in un processore finquando il composto somiglia a pangrattato grossolano. Aggiungete le uova, gli albumi montati a neve e la scorza di limone.
