Mango Crumble Cake

I bought a case of mangos from Costco, and I like to enjoy eating them fresh, but after a few days, I decide to bake a cake using these mangos before they get too ripe. This is the recipe:

Cake Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tbsp. lemon peel
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 - 3 mangoes, peeled, and cubed
Topping Ingredients:
  • 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter, chilled

  Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a springform pan
  • In medium bowl, beat butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat.
  • Blend flour, baking powder, and lemon peel together.
  • Add flour mixture alternately with milk into butter mixture and mix well.
  • Spread batter in greased pan.
  • Arrange mango cubes on top of batter
To make Topping:
  • In a small bowl, combine flour and sugar.
  • Using 2 knives or a pastry blender cut in butter until mixture resembles large crumbs.
  • Sprinkle over mangoes.
  • Bake for 40 - 45 minutes. Check with wooden toothpick to see if it is done (should come out clean - no batter on toothpick).
  • Cool in pan on a wire rack.
  • Makes about 16 servings. Tastes great served with whipped cream!
