Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
- 0.75 cup coconut milk
- 0.5 cup coconut oil, melted
- 0.75 cup cane sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a blender or food processor, puree the diced mangoes until smooth. Measure out 1 cup of the mango puree.
In a separate bowl, combine the mango puree, coconut milk, melted coconut oil, cane sugar, vanilla extract, lime juice, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar or decorate as desired before serving.
