As with the strange twist on my version's name, let me explain.. *taps foot* Nothing against the original published version on the book. But with the blue moon arisen above my horizons, I surely had to put my creativity to work. And alas... the pistachios stood like green magnets shining in awesome spectacle in my fridge. I gave in, swopping the fine almond flour for finely grounded pistachios instead. A cumbersome effort that was well worth the extra washing. The tender sprouting greens and incredible nutty aroma of the batter was right up my alley! With a gentle sprinkling of rosewater in place of the vanilla extract, I swear i could just feel a live persian dance in my kitchen.
And what better way to end off the entire mystical journey then a generous coating of warm apricot glaze and a shower of crushed pistachios... Now that's what I call a match made in heaven.
Stay tuned for next week recipe's of Blueberry Crumb Cake as chosen by ME!!!

It looks amazing, well done! Pistachios and rosewater essence, yum :)
Your cake is beautiful! Where did you get such a stunning cake pan? Funny because we make a pistachio yogurt cake at the bakery I work at, and it didn't even cross my mind to make it that way! Gorgeous cake!
I really like what you did with this cake. It looks fabulous! Pistachios would make anything taste wonderful.
I've never cooked with rosewater, but now that I've seen your variation, I've got to get some! Very creative, and I'm sure very delicious.
I made the blueberry cake a couple of weeks ago - we really enjoyed it!

What a perfect match of flavors for this cake. I bet it was delicious. Rosewater adds an exotic aroma that can whisk you to a faraway place in one whiff.
well done, u r such a creative cookie ;-))
Lovely! The cake looks great. I adore pistachios so anything with them gets high marks from me. Can't wait to make the crumb cake!
I can completely really understand your disappointment!! While I did not bake the cake you chose (I plan to do so this weekend), I have had a weekend of failed baking efforts...macarons, whoopie pies, and even a simple peanut butter cookie recipe did not turn out as I had hoped. Thanks for choosing this recipe. I like that you chose something that means something to you. I'll bet your next effort will be perfect.
