Recently, my daughter’s friend, Samantha, dropped by with a big slice of this cake. She loves to bake and knows I love pistachio, so she surprised me with this sweet confection.

Loaf cakes, tea breads, or snack cakes are all names for easy-to-put-together sweet cakes that use baking powder instead of yeast. This tasty cake is made quickly in the food processor with toasted pistachios as the star ingredient. I buy my pistachios at Trader Joe’s; if you don’t have a Trader Joe’s near you, you can easily toast the pistachios yourself.
