Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped pistachios Use fresh pistachios for maximum flavor.
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. Fold in the finely chopped pistachios to the dry mix, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Mixing
  1. In another bowl, combine the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully blended.
  2. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should appear slightly lumpy.
Baking
  1. Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  2. Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  3. Let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use fresh pistachios for maximum flavor. You can also lightly toast them for enhanced nuttiness. Don’t shy away from adding your favorite ingredients, such as dried fruits or other nuts.
