I had a little bit of frozen mango chunks left in the bag, so I thought the kids could do something with them.
I stumbled upon this recipe and made a few modifications. The kids really enjoyed making this cake with me as well as eating it after it had came out of the oven.
Mix 1/4 cup butter with 3/4 cup sugar
Puree about the amount of an actual mango
Add the mango puree into the butter and sugar mixture along with 1 egg, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 2 tbsp lemon juice
Next, mix 1 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp baking soda in a separate bowl, then fold it into the wet ingredients.
Chop up about another real mango worth of mango pieces,
and fold them in with everything else.
Grease the baking pan and transfer the batter into it
In about 39 minutes (yes, it was 39 minutes for me and not 40 =P), it was completely done, it smelled heavenly and tasted... well, let's just say the taste was definitely approved by Sophie and Brandon! ^_^
