Method

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Whisk the yogurt, egg, egg white, most of the honey, the oil, the orange juice and most of the zest.
  2. Fold in the dry ingredients — flour, almond flour, baking powder — then most of the pistachios.
  3. Bake 22–25 minutes in a 4 1/2-inch (11 cm) pan lined with parchment, until a skewer comes out clean. Brush the remaining honey over the hot cake and scatter the last pistachios and zest while it is warm. Cool 10 minutes in the pan, then lift it out by the parchment.
Chef’s tipZest before juicing. Zesting a squeezed orange is impossible. It takes ten seconds in the right order and cannot be done in the wrong one.
Make it twoDoubles into a loaf pan at 30 minutes; it keeps three days and improves on the second.
