Description

A moist and flavorful cake made with tangy buttermilk, fresh mango, and mixed berries, topped with a buttery, crumbly streusel. A perfect dessert or brunch treat that combines tropical and berry flavors.


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, or blackberries)
  • 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. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the diced mango and mixed berries.
  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 sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the top of the batter.
  8. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute frozen berries if fresh ones aren’t available, just make sure to thaw and drain them first.
  • For extra flavor, you can add a tablespoon of lemon zest to the batter or the crumb topping.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
