Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. If hydrating dried lemon zest, mix with 1 1/2 teaspoons water in a small bowl and let sit for 15 minutes, then put aside with the other wet ingredients.
  2. Divide the pistachios by taking 1/2 cup and running through a food processor fitted with a very sharp metal blade until they are practically powder (or ARE powder.) I found that the shredder blade was actually better for this than the traditional swivel blade. Put the powder/near-powder aside with the dry ingredients.
  3. Run the remaining 1/2 cup of pistachios through a rough chop in the food processor, then put aside for now.
  4. Line a Texas Muffin pan with 6 liners.
  5. In a large bowl, mix the flour, pistachio powder, baking powder, salt, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together.
  6. In another bowl, mix remaining wet ingredients together with a whisk.
  7. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and whisk until just combined and there are no more dry spots but don't overmix.
  8. Whisk in the rough-chopped pistachios.
  9. Add green food dye now, about 6 drops, if you want the muffins to look bright green.
  10. Fill each muffin paper about halfway or a little less.
  11. Bake 25-30 minutes at 350F or until browned on top.
