Mango Upside-Down Cake image

This mango cake is stunningly simple to make and perfect for when mangoes are in season. It's also relatively healthy as far as cakes go and not overly sweet. The cake is dense and perfect with tea or coffee. I use Alfonso mangoes, but any variety will do.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ripe mangoes, peeled and thinly sliced
⅔ cup white sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
½ cup plain Greek yogurt
½ cup sunflower seed oil
1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhanging on all sides.
  • Arrange mango slices in an overlapping pattern over the bottom of the prepared dish.
  • Combine sugar, eggs, yogurt, and oil in a large bowl and stir until smooth. Fold in flour, coconut, and baking powder until just combined. Spoon batter over the sliced mango, and spread evenly to the edges.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Let the cake cool in the dish for 15 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate and carefully peeling off the parchment paper. Allow to cool completely before slicing.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out right. It was too dry and the mango topping was too runny.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use a little more spice.
