Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup caster sugar
  • 1/2 cup mango puree
  • 2/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tbsp warm milk (optional, if batter is too dry)

Topping

  • Whipped cream
  • Chopped fresh mango
  • Chopped pistachios

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 6-inch cake tin thoroughly to prevent the cake from sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to ensure they are evenly combined and free of lumps.
  3. Add Sugar: Whisk in the caster sugar to the dry ingredients until evenly distributed.
  4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the mango puree, plain Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until no streaks of flour remain. The batter will be thick; if it feels too dry, gradually add 1-2 tablespoons of warm milk to loosen it slightly.
  6. Transfer to Cake Tin: Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin, smoothing the top evenly.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 40-45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool: Allow the cake to cool in the tin for 10-15 minutes, then carefully remove it and place it on a cooling rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve: Serve the cake as is or top with whipped cream, fresh mango cubes, and chopped pistachios for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • If the batter is too thick or dry, adding warm milk helps achieve the right consistency.
  • Ensure the cake is fully cooled before frosting or topping to prevent melting.
  • This cake can be made ahead and stored covered at room temperature for 1-2 days or refrigerated for up to 3 days.
  • For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt and whipped cream with plant-based alternatives.
  • Use ripe, fragrant mangoes for the best flavor in the puree.
