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

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or an 8×8-inch square pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. 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.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Fold in the diced mango and mixed berries gently.
  6. 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.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and evenly sprinkle the crumb topping over the batter.
  8. 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.
  9. Slice and serve at room temperature or slightly warm.

Notes

  • Feel free to substitute frozen berries if fresh ones are unavailable. Just be sure to thaw and drain them to avoid excess moisture.
  • You can also add a drizzle of lemon glaze over the top of the cooled cake for an extra zing.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days.
