First of all, I have to thank my friend also neighbour, Chan & his wife Diane Mary for their wonderful home grown mangoes. Thank you for sending in the mangoes, they are very sweet & delicious but I only saving two for my baking. :o) Yes, I baked a mangoes cake. A simple one as you can see here, even the kids can make their own. Its actually my first attempt baking with fresh mangoes. Wonderful experience though ! So, here's what I did.
Ingredients :
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tspn ginger powder
1 tspn baking powder
1/2 tspn baking soda
1/2 tspn salt
70gm butter, melted
4 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup mangoes puree
Method :
(1) combine flour, ginger powder, baking powder, baking soda & salt into a big bowl and mix well.
(2) beat eggs and sugar till fluffy & pale then add in mangoes puree & butter and mix well.
(3) now, fold in dry ingredients and mix to combine.
(4) pour batter to a 4x4x9" baking tray lined with parchment paper then bake at preheated oven 175'C for about 50-60 minutes.
The cake turns out looking great. Love the colour ! >o<
And the texture is super moist & fluffy but the aroma of mangoes became quite mild after baking though. Probably, an extra mangoes essence will help the improvement. Overall it was lovely. Hope you guys will love it too. Enjoy & have a lovely weekend everyone !
