Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup milk
- 0.5 cup chopped pistachios
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons milk for glaze
- 0.25 cup chopped pistachios for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In another bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the eggs one at a time into the butter and sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture alternating with milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Fold in the chopped pistachios gently using a spatula.
Transfer the batter into a piping bag with a large round tip or a ziplock bag with the corner cut off.
Pipe the batter into the donut pan filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
Remove the donuts from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the glaze, mix the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth and desired consistency is reached.
Dip the cooled donuts in the glaze, then sprinkle each with the remaining chopped pistachios.
Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your soy-free pistachio donuts!
