Step 9: Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
Step 10: Prepare the Pistachio Glaze
While the bread is baking, prepare the glaze. In a bowl, combine the powdered sugar, chopped pistachios, milk, and almond extract (if using). Mix until smooth.

Once the bread has cooled for about 10 minutes, drizzle the pistachio glaze over the top. Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan before removing.

Slice the pistachio bread and serve it with a hot cup of coffee or tea. The combination of the nutty pistachio flavor and the sweet glaze makes for a delightful treat.
