- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line three 6-inch round cake pans with parchment and grease the sides.
- Pulse unsalted pistachios until coarse flour in a food processor. Combine with flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
- Whisk melted butter and sugar in a bowl, add eggs one at a time, then Greek yogurt, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
- Sift dry mixture into wet ingredients and whisk gently until combined, ensuring not to overmix.
- Divide the batter among prepared pans, smooth tops, and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool cake layers in pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- Prepare raspberry jam in a saucepan over medium heat; combine raspberries, sugar, and water, cooking until thickened.

- Assemble the cake with one layer on a serving plate, spread jam and buttercream between layers, finishing with the top layer.
