A very humble recipe which can be made by one and all, no expertise in baking required for this. If you like mangoes you are going to relish this cake.
Ingredients:
1 cup fine semolina
1 cup mango puree
1/2 cup sugar (powdered)
1/4 cup oil
1 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cardamom powder
2 tbsp Sliced almonds (optional)
2 tbsp Sliced pistachios (optional)
A few saffron strands (optional)
Directions :
1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a loaf pan with wax paper.
2. Mix all the dry ingredients - semolina, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and cardamom powder.
3. Pour mango puree and oil to the dry mixture. Mix until well combined.
4. Let the cake batter sit for 15-20 minutes. Add baking powder & baking soda. Give it a mix after.
5. Immediately pour the cake batter into the loaf pan and decorate with chopped nuts and saffron.
6. Bake for 25-28 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack and cut after cooling.
Note :
I have used canned mango pulp, if you are using home made pulp you may want to add 3/4 cup of sugar. Canned mango pulp is quite sweet.
