Forget boring Nutella, sticky jam and bland peanut butter. Now pistachios are conquering your bread. Anyone who previously only knew pistachios as a salty snack on the sofa should now sit up and take notice. Because pistachios are currently more popular than ever. And rightly so. No matter whether in ice cream, in chocolate or on bread. Pistachios are just everywhere right now.

But who knows that, botanically speaking, pistachios are not a nut at all? They are stone fruits. Nevertheless, like nuts, they score with lots of potassium, polyunsaturated fatty acids, fiber and vitamin B.

Recipe for pistachio cream: Wonderfully creamy and aromatic

Here comes a real taste explosion in your mouth. Our homemade pistachio cream scores particularly well with its unique nutty and slightly sweet taste and silky consistency. The vanilla really rounds off the cream in this recipe and ensures a very special taste experience. Try it out straight away! But be careful: there is an acute risk of addiction here!

You need:

  • 80 g pistachios, unsalted
  • 120 g chocolate, white
  • 25 g Butter
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 50g condensed milk
  • 10 g powdered sugar, sifted
  • 4 drops of vanilla flavor

And it's that easy:

1. Peel and grind pistachios. This works best in a multi-chopper(order directly from Amazon here*).

2. Heat all other ingredients in a water bath until the chocolate and butter are completely melted.

3. Now add the pistachios and stir everything vigorously. Now mix the cream again with the hand blender until it has a smooth consistency.

4. Pour the cream into a boiled jam jar and close tightly. Allow to cool.

Our tip:You can also use the cream perfectly as frosting for your cake or your homemade cupcakes. The spread is also perfect as a filling for your yeast plait or Sunday cake.
