Baking Process
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and prepare your springform pan by lining it with parchment paper.
- In a food processor, blitz together 1 cup of shelled pistachios, ½ cup of all-purpose flour, and ¼ cup of granulated sugar until finely ground. Add in ¼ cup of cold vegan butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of sea salt.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of soy milk with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and let sit for 5–10 minutes.
- In the food processor, blend 1 cup of finely ground pistachios with ¾ cup of granulated sugar until soft and fluffy, then add in ½ cup of room-temperature vegan butter.
- To the pistachio mixture, add ½ cup of vegan Greek-style yogurt, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon of almond extract. Mix thoroughly, then alternately add the vegan buttermilk and dry ingredients.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared springform pan. Spoon ½ cup of vegan pistachio cream spread over this layer, then top with the remaining batter.
- Sprinkle the pistachio crumble topping generously over the final layer of batter.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
