Ingredients

  • 1½ cups whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1¾ cup roasted and unsalted shelled pistachios
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup coconut oil, walnut oil, or melted butter
  • ½ cup honey
  • 1½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350˚ F and line a muffin tin with 12 liners.
  • To make pistachio meal, pulse pistachios in a food processor until broken down into meal. Do not run for a long time or pistachio meal will turn into pistachio butter.
  • In a bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups ground pistachios (reserving 1/4 cup for later use), wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and add in milk, oil, and honey.
  • Pour wet ingredients into dry and ingredients and stir until barely combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Divide batter among 12 muffins. Sprinkle with remaining ground pistachio meal. Bake for 15-18 minutes. Top should be golden brown and muffin should spring back lightly when touched.
  • Extra muffins store well in the freezer.
