¼ cup water
3 cups raw pistachio

2 tbsp. honey
Preparation
1. In a sauce pan combine squash and water and boil for 5 minutes or until semi soft. Let it cool for a while to room temperature.

6. Add the squash puree to the egg mixture and mix well until well blended.
7. Pour the wet ingredients into the ground pistachio and mix well.
8. Make sure that the batter is well mixed but no need to overdo it. Just enough to mix the wet and dry ingredients.
9. Pour the batter into the cake pan and put the pan in the middle rack of the oven.
10. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the knife comes out clean.
11. Take it out from the oven. Cut into square pieces.
