Detailed Directions and Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Ensure that it is fully heated before placing the cake inside for even baking.
Prepare the Baking Pan
Grease a round 8-inch baking pan with oil or butter. You can also line the bottom with parchment paper for easier removal.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Whisk them together until well mixed.
Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, mix yogurt, sugar, oil, and mango pulp. Whisk until the sugar dissolves completely and the mixture is smooth.
Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Add Additional Flavors
If desired, incorporate vanilla extract into the batter for additional flavor. Gently mix again.
Transfer Batter to Pan
Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top if necessary.
Bake the Cake
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean.
Cool the Cake
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional Toppings
Once the cake is completely cooled, you may choose to frost it with your favorite icing or top it with fresh mango slices if desired.
Notes
Storage
Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Mango Pulp
For the best flavor, use ripe, sweet mangoes to make the mango pulp.
Yogurt Substitution
If you don’t have yogurt, you can substitute it with an equal amount of buttermilk.
Serving Suggestions
This cake pairs well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
