Moist Mango Cake Ingredients
Whole Wheat Flour: A healthier alternative to refined flour. It adds a nutty flavor and a denser texture to to the cake. Rich in fiber and nutrients compared to refined flour, contributing to a more wholesome cake.
Mango Puree: The star ingredient which lends natural sweetness, tanginess, and a delightful mango flavor to the cake. It provides moisture and a vibrant color, making the cake moist and visually appealing.
Milk: Adds moisture, richness, and tenderness to the cake while also enhancing the flavor. It helps in achieving the desired consistency of the batter and ensures even mixing of ingredients.
Castor Sugar: A finely ground sugar that dissolves easily, it sweetens the cake and contributes to its texture and structure. It also helps in tenderizing the crumb and promoting browning during baking.
Oil: Provides moisture to the cake, resulting in a soft and moist texture. It also helps in keeping the cake tender and prolongs its shelf life compared to using butter.
Vanilla Essence: Enhances the flavor profile of the cake with its sweet and aromatic notes. It adds depth and complexity to the mango flavor and complements the other ingredients.
Baking Powder: Acts as a leavening agent, helping the cake to rise by producing carbon dioxide gas when mixed with moisture and heat. It ensures a light and airy texture in the finished cake.
Baking Soda: Another leavening agent that reacts with acidic ingredients like mango puree and yogurt, producing carbon dioxide bubbles that expand and lift the batter. It helps in achieving a tender crumb and proper rise in the cake.
Cardamom Powder: Adds a warm, aromatic flavor with hints of citrus and mint to the cake. It complements the sweetness of the mango. Enhances the overall taste profile with its unique and amazing flavor.
Pistachio: You can top the cake batter with roughly chopped pistachio or you can mix the bits in batter for crunch and taste.
How To Make Mango Puree From Fresh Mango
Making fresh mango puree is quite simple. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Select Ripe Mangoes: Choose ripe mangoes that yield slightly to gentle pressure when squeezed. They should also have a fragrant smell at the stem end.
- Peel the Mangoes: Use a sharp knife to carefully peel the skin off the mangoes. You can also use a vegetable peeler for this task.
- Remove the Flesh: Cut the mango flesh away from the seed or pit. Hold the mango vertically and slice along the flat sides, avoiding the large seed in the center. Then, cut the flesh into smaller chunks.
- Blend the Mango: Place the mango chunks into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. If the puree is too thick, you can add a little water or a splash of lemon juice to help it blend more easily.
- Strain (Optional): If you prefer a smoother puree without any fibrous bits, you can strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any solids.
- Store or Use Immediately: Transfer the fresh mango puree to a clean container with a tight-fitting lid. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or freeze it for longer storage.
Recipe Tips
Mango Puree: Make fresh mango puree as described above for the freshest flavor. Ensure it’s smooth and free of lumps.
Adjust Sweetness: Depending on the sweetness of your mangoes, you may need to adjust the amount of sugar in the recipe. Taste the batter before baking and add more sugar if necessary.
Add Flavor Enhancers: Enhance the mango flavor with a splash of vanilla essence or a pinch of cardamom powder. These additions complement the mango flavor beautifully.
Use Oil: Since this is a butterless cake recipe, use a neutral-flavored oil like vegetable or canola oil. Oil helps keep the cake moist and tender. For more tropical flavor, you can use coconut oil too.
Leavening Agents: Use a combination of baking powder and baking soda for proper leavening. Make sure they are fresh to ensure the cake rises well.
Don’t Overmix: Mix the batter until just combined to avoid developing gluten, which can result in a dense cake.
Baking Time and Temperature: Preheat your oven and bake the cake at the recommended temperature for even baking. Check for doneness with a toothpick inserted into the center; it should come out clean.
Cooling and Serving: Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing and serving. Optionally, you can dust the top with powdered sugar. You can even drizzle the cake with a simple glaze made from mango puree and powdered sugar for extra sweetness and flavor.
