Total time: P0Y0M0DT0H30M0.000S
Yield: 24 mini cakes
Ingredients: Nonstick cooking spray, coconut, sunflower or other neutral oil; 3/4 cup shelled pistachios, unsalted; 1/2 cup granulated sugar; 3/4 cup gluten-free baking flour, such Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon sea salt; 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons pistachio oil; 1/4 cup almond milk; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 2 large egg whites; 1/4 cup frozen raspberries, crumbled into small pieces (see Cook's Notes)

Directions

Special equipment:

a 24-cup mini muffin pan

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 24-cup mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Put the shelled pistachios and sugar in a food processor. Pulse a few times to break up the pistachios and then process until the mixture resembles sand, about 30 seconds. Transfer the pistachio mixture to a large bowl. Whisk in the gluten-free baking flour, baking powder and salt.
Whisk the pistachio oil, almond milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Whisk in the egg whites. Gently fold in the crumbled frozen raspberry pieces with a rubber spatula. Evenly divide the batter between the muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a teacake comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes.
Remove to a wire cooling rack and serve.

Cook’s Note

Frozen raspberries crumble into small pieces easily, making them perfect for these mini bite-size treats. You can also use fresh raspberries, but be careful not to crush them. If they release too much juice, it may make the batter soggy.
