Are you getting bored of putting butter on your toast? Do you wish there was something even tastier, healthier, and unique to spread on your toast? Well, there is something new, all the way from Italy, that you will absolutely love. You’ll soon want to put in on every type of bread you can possibly think of: bagels, sandwich bread, English muffins, pancakes, and crepes.
What is Pistachio Cream?
Pistachio cream is essentially a nut butter made out of pistachios. Its sweetened with sugar, and sometimes has butter or another oil added, and even sometimes white chocolate. It is very bright green color, which can make your toast look very unique and even more appetizing than plain old yellow butter or brown peanut butter. The nuts are ground very finely to make a super smooth cream, which has an absolutely delicious texture that anyone will love.
What does Pistachio Cream taste like?
Pistachio Cream has a sweet flavor that resembles Nutella, just without the chocolate. Unlike Nutella, it has a strong, nutty flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness. This is why it can be used in almost any place where a nut butter or Nutella can be used. Pistachio Cream is a great sweet spread alternative to people who don’t like chocolate. (Trust me, I know people who don’t).
What can Pistachio Cream be used for?
Pistachio Cream can be used for all sorts of things. From baking to topping your toast, you can get quite creative with it. I personally love putting it on thick slices of whole wheat toast. You don’t need to put much of it on to make it taste great! It’s also great to put on bagels in place of cream cheese. It’s got much less salt and saturated fat than cream cheese, making it a healthier option. It also works on English muffins in place of jams, which usually use high fructose corn syrup and lots of added sugar. Pistachio Cream doesn’t use much sugar, making it a healthier option than most jams. Last but not least, it tastes great when wrapped in crepes! It’s just like Nutella, just without the chocolate. Pistachio cream can also be used in pastries and other baked goods to give them a sweet and nutty flavor.
Next time you go down the nut butter aisle, look for some Pistachio cream. Try to choose the option with the least added sugar and fats. Remember, the first ingredient should always be pistachios. Whatever you decide to put this delicacy on, I guarantee that you will greatly enjoy it!
