Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Mango puree
• 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray, then line the bottom with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the mango puree until the batter is just combined.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve the cake as it is or with a dusting of powdered sugar on top for extra sweetness.
