Desserts in vivid, green color are very popular with food bloggers—but matcha powder and mint aren’t the only ingredients that will make them look this way. Pistachios can give your sweet treats a similar shade, and Gabrielle of Eat Drink Shrink shared a couple of delicious ideas with her followers.

Vegan Pistachio Pancakes

This recipe will be a perfect fit for everyone trying to add some pistachios to their breakfast menu. These delicious pancakes wouldn’t be complete without some chopped pistachios, but they also owe their green shade to another surprising ingredient—fresh spinach.

Sheet cakes are one of Gabrielle’s specialties, and she couldn’t resist baking one with pistachios. The list of ingredients for this dish is pretty much the same as for pistachio pancakes, but it’s a better fit when you have dinner guests coming over.
