Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a food processor, pulse the pistachios until they are finely ground but not pasty. Set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the ground pistachios and mix well.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, and vegetable oil. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Add the vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, and almond milk to the sugar mixture. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your dairy-free pistachio cookies once they're cool, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
