Preparation:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, pista, almond flour, and salt. Combine butter into the flour mixture with your fingertips, rub together until it resembles coarse mixture.
- Drizzle the flour mixture with saffron milk extract & gently mix. The dough should be evenly damp, but remain crumbly and stick together only when pinched.
- Line a 9" x 5" loaf pan with plastic wrap, and pour the mixture into it. Cover with plastic wrap, and press it down very firmly to an even, compact layer about 1/2" thick. Refrigerate for 1 hours.
