Orange and Pistachio Cupcakes!
With a light satisfying texture and delicate orange, raspberry and pistachio flavour: these cupcakes have a distinctly exotic, North African flavour and are very easy to make.
This recipe makes 6 buns.
Ingredients
Set oven to 170C
1 large or 2 small eggs
2 tbsp coconut oil or butter
Zest and juice of one orange
5 large Medjool dates (chopped and pitted)
100g almond flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cardoman
25g pistachios (roughly chopped)
Pinch of salt
6 luscious raspberries
Method
Mix all the moist ingredients including the chopped dates together with a fork
In a separate bowl mix together all the dry ingredients including half of the pistachios
Then add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well together
Spoon the mixture into cases and set aside for a few minutes
This will allow the baking powder to act
Carefully place a raspberry onto the top of each cupcake and sprinkle over the remaining nuts
Bake in the pre-heated oven for about 15 minutes til golden and springy.
…….Springy, yum, ENJOY!
Simple and delicious, these cupcakes make a great weekend treat for the whole family.
I’ve never seen this flavour combination before, it sounds delicious!
