Chocolate and Pistachio just seems to go together. Well, actually, there isn't much that doesn't go with chocolate, right? This Chocolate Pistachio Bread is a real winner. Not too sweet, filled with roasted pistachio pieces. A perfect dessert, snack, or even breakfast!
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup almond milk (or milk of your choice)
- 2 eggs
- 1-½ cups flour
- 1 cup chopped roasted pistachio nuts
- ½ cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup unsweetened baking cocoa
- 1-½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- cooking spray
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together sugar and butter. Add eggs, beating until incorporated.
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour, baking cocoa, baking powder and salt.
- Add half of the milk to wet batter and blend well. Stir in half of the flour mixture and stir until combined. Repeat with milk and flour, ending with the flour.
- Stir in nuts and chocolate chips. Pour into 9x5 glass baking pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Bake60 to 70 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Coll 10 minutes in pan on wire rack.
- Loosen sides of loaf from pan. Remove from pan to wire rack. Cool completely before slicing.
