Instructions

  5. Combine wet and dry ingredients gently; fold in aquafaba until just mixed.
  6. Pour into the pan and bake for about 35–45 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.
  7. After cooling, poke holes all over the cake and soak it with a mixture of pistachio butter, sweetened condensed coconut milk, evaporated coconut milk, and almond milk.
  8. Refrigerate overnight for maximum flavor.
  9. Serve topped with whipped coconut cream mixed with pistachio butter and sprinkled with chopped pistachios.
