Step-by-Step Instructions
Prepare your baking tools: Gather ingredients and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini cupcake pan with paper liners.
Mix the wet ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together almond milk, apple cider vinegar, and rose water. Let sit for 5 minutes, then pour into dry mixture.
Incorporate the pistachios: Gently fold in chopped pistachios to the batter.
Fill the cupcake liners: Spoon batter into liners, filling each about two-thirds full and smoothing the tops.
Bake the cupcakes: Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan for a few minutes.
Prepare the frosting: Whip chilled coconut cream until fluffy, gradually adding powdered sugar and vanilla.
Frost the cupcakes: Once cooled, generously apply coconut frosting using a knife or piping bag.
Garnish and serve: Sprinkle additional pistachios on top and serve.
