YUM! this would be a wonderful addition for our Easter Brunch. Thank you for the recipe and thank you for sharing at this week’s Encouraging Hearts & Home Blog Hop!
You are welcome Linda. I do hope you get a chance to make this recipe. If you do try thre pistachio bread let me know how it turns out! Enjoy your day!
What was the amount of walnuts you added to recipe? You never listed it in ingredients.
I actually eyebvalled what I knew would do it. Start with maybe a 1/4 cup then add to your own taste. They offer the crunch you would like with your bread. They dont offer much taste really. I hope that helps. I do hate when people say “as desired”. Sometimes you just think you may like so many, but the next time add more or less. With add-ins like that I decide the amount on how i am feeling today. LOL
What an easy bread to make, I may give it a try when I add a few more carbs into my every day. I do love pistachio and it sounds divine! Sim x MeltInYourMouthMondays
I am glad you like it. I agree that carbs are hard to adjust. I need to get back to it. I have loved bread too much. LOL. Enjoy your week.
This sounds so easy and delicious. You had me at walnuts. Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday- pinning to give this a bake!
Thank you Jenny. I love the crunch of the walnuts in bread. It can’t be beat. Have a lovely evening!

Thank you Pam! I love pistachios too. Have a great week!
Great recipe that I definitely will try. Do you add the walnuts to the mix? I wasn’t sure because it was listed in the ingredients. Love your recipes and will definitely try it.
Thanks
Maria
Heh Maria, you made me go back to see. The recipe doesn’t call for them, but I did add them since I had an open package and wanted the crunch. I added them to the batter and would have added some to the top but I ran out. I never caught I didn’t add them to the recipe since it was an afterthought! Thank you for the kind words and am glad you like the parties. Each one draws different guests so even though some links are the same there are also many neww ones between them! Enjoy.
Hi, Thank you for the reply. I wanted to let you know that I made the pistachio bread and it came out wonderful. Everybody loved it and will be watching for more wonderful recipes from you.
Thanks,
Maria

I think the addition of the pudding is what makes it moist and not crumble. I love #WhatsForDinner!
