Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup roasted, unsalted pistachios (finely ground)
  • ¼ cup almond flour
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (for mousse)
  • 1 teaspoon vegan gelatin powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine ground pistachios, almond flour, sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Press into molds and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden; cool completely.
  2. Bloom vegan gelatin in cold water while blending finely ground pistachios with heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Dissolve bloomed gelatin in warm water and mix into the pistachio blend. Fold in whipped cream until well combined.
  3. Spread the pistachio mousse over the cooled crust and chill for about 30 minutes.
  4. For raspberry compote, cook raspberries with sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan for about 5 minutes, then stir in cornstarch slurry until thickened; let cool slightly.
  5. Layer raspberry compote over the chilled mousse and prepare raspberry topping by blooming vegan gelatin again and mixing it into warm raspberry puree before folding it with whipped cream.
  6. Pipe topping over the raspberry layer and chill assembled cakes for at least 4 hours before serving.
