Ingredients

For the Cake

  • 320g self-raising flour
  • 50g desiccated coconut
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
  • 85g unsalted butter soft at room temperature
  • 280g caster sugar
  • 90ml vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 medium eggs room tempertaure
  • 175ml natural yoghurt
  • 160ml coconut milk
  • 270g mangoes (weight without skin and stone) chopped

For the Glaze

  • 100g icing sugar
  • 20ml milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to gas mark 3½/340oF/160oC and line a 13 x 9-inch baking tin with parchment paper. The tin should be above 3 inches deep.
  • To a large bowl add the flour, desiccated coconut, salt and bicarbonate soda. Whisk them together and set aside.
  • To a stand mixer bowl or a large mixing bowl add the butter, sugar and oil. Using a paddle attachment cream them together on a medium speed until light and fluffy (around 2 minutes). Add in the vanilla extract and combine then add the eggs one by one, mixing between each egg.
  • Mix in the yoghurt and coconut milk then mix in the dry ingredients set aside earlier. Using a spatula gently fold in the chopped mangoes then pour the batter into the baking tin and bake for 45 - 50 minutes. Use a cake tester to ensure it is baked throughout.
  • For the glaze, combine the icing sugar and milk then drizzle on the top of the cake and finish it off by sprinkling some desiccated coconut on top of the icing.
