Warm Pistachio Cake

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pistachio Cake

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and set aside.

  2. 2

    Blend Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine the shelled pistachios until finely ground. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, and pulse to combine.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter and eggs until well combined. Gradually mix in the labneh until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.

  5. 5

    Bake the Cake

    Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Mousse

    While the cake is baking, melt the white chocolate in a double boiler or microwave. Let it cool slightly, then fold it gently into whipped labneh.

  7. 7

    Plating

    Once the cake is cooled slightly, slice it and serve warm with a generous dollop of the white chocolate mousse on top. Garnish with sliced nectarines and fig leaves.
