Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 14-cup bundt pan or crown ring mold.

Mix sugar, carrots, oil, eggs, and vanilla in large bowl.

In separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and 3/4 cup pistachios. Mix portions of dry mixture (about 1/3 at a time) into egg mixture alternately with yogurt. Turn into prepared pan.
