Prepare the chosen cake dough as directed, but replace the nutmeg with ½ teaspoon ground cardamom, reduce the vanilla extract to ½ teaspoon, and add ¼ teaspoon almond extract to the wet ingredients.
-
Step 3.
Mix in the coarsely ground pistachios and ⅓ cup of the coarsely chopped pistachios on medium speed until incorporated.
-
Step 4.
Fry or bake the doughnuts as directed by the dough recipe.
-
Step 5.
After the doughnuts have cooled slightly, glaze them with the honey glaze, then sprinkle with the remaining ⅓ cup coarsely chopped pistachios.
