Refined Christmas cake & Gugl with avocado and pistachios

ingredients

(The ingredients are enough for a loaf pan or 18 mini balls For both, you just double the amounts.)

• 60 g pistachio nuts
• 1 lime (organic)
• 1 ripe avocado
• 250 g soft butter + butter for greasing the mold
• 200 g of sugar
• salt
• 4 eggs
• 350 g flour
• 1 packet of tartar baking powder
• 50 ml coconut milk
• 1 tbsp powdered sugar
• White couverture

• Loaf pan (approx. 30 cm long)
• Minigugl forms
• Hand mixer

And this is how it works: Refined Christmas cake or miniature glass

1. Coarsely chop 50 g of the pistachios.
2. Wash the lime, halve it and squeeze out about 3 tablespoons of juice.
3. Halve, core and peel the avocado.
4. Whisk the avocado with butter, sugar and a pinch of salt with a hand mixer for 8 minutes to a creamy mass.
5. Add the eggs, flour, roughly chopped pistachios, some grated lime zest, baking powder, coconut milk and lime juice and stir all the ingredients into a smooth batter.
6. Grease the loaf pan or mini-jelly pan well and add the batter.
7. Bake the Christmas cake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees top / bottom heat for one hour. You only leave the miniature glass in the oven for 8-10 minutes.
8. Let the gugl / cake cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before you throw them onto a wire rack and let cool down completely.
9. Coarsely chop the remaining pistachios.
10. Garnish the cake with powdered sugar and chopped pistachios before serving. Or melt some white couverture and decorate the Gugl.

tip: If the cake gets very dark, cover it with baking paper for the last 15-20 minutes in the oven.
