Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with some oil.
In a small bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Stir and set aside for a few minutes to curdle. This mixture will act as your dairy-free buttermilk.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract to the bowl with the almond milk mixture, and stir to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can result in dense muffins.
Fold in the roughly chopped pistachios until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle the top of each muffin with a little bit of the extra chopped pistachios for a nice crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your delicious dairy-free pistachio muffins warm or at room temperature.
