Description
A moist and flavorful cake made with buttermilk, ripe mango, and mixed berries, topped with a crumbly cinnamon topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries)
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for crumb topping)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed (for crumb topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or an 8×8-inch square pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in the diced mango and mixed berries gently.
- In a small bowl, prepare the crumb topping by combining 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup flour, and cinnamon. Add the cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and evenly sprinkle the crumb topping over the batter.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and serve at room temperature or slightly warm.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg to the crumb topping.
- This cake can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Try using different fruits like peaches or apricots for a variation.
