Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with parchment.
  • Whisk the pistachios, flours, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  • In another bowl, whisk the eggs, melted butter, milk, lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  • Fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients just until no dry streaks remain.
  • Scrape the batter into the pan and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, until the center springs back and a tester comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a rack and cool completely.
  • Whisk the powdered sugar with 1 to 2 teaspoons lemon juice and drizzle over the cooled loaf.
