Mango cake

This dish has come out of dire necessity..we were going out of town & i still had about a kilo of mangoes lying in the fruit basket ..not knowing what to do i looked into the internet & got this recipe for mango cake ..sounds weird isnt it ..its hard to believe but it tasted great ..the reason why i chose a mango cake to finish my supply of mangoes was that firstly it needed 2 cups of mangoes ..which is a good quantity & secondly i had recently bought a heart shaped cake tin & badly wanted to bake a cake in it..!!!
how i made it:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sift together 2 cups of flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda &
• 1 tsp cinnamon powder.
• Make a well in the center & add
• 1 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/4 cup grated coconut
• 2 cups of finely chopped mangoes
• 1/2 cup veg oil
• 3 eggs &
• 1 tsp vanilla.


• Mix together .


• Pour onto the cake tin (my heart shaped tin!!).. let it rest for 20 mts .. the batter will rise a little. then bake in the oven for about an hour..
