Notes on ingredients

You can find a complete list of ingredients with exact amounts and instructions in the recipe card below.
  • White rice flour: White rice flour is naturally gluten free, rich in carbohydrates and low in fat. It is used as an alternative to wheat flour in gluten-free baked goods.
  • Oat flour: Oat flour is a nutritious, unrefined flour that lends great texture to baked goods.
  • Almond flour: Almond flour is made from blanched (peeled) almonds and it is not the same as almond meal. Compared to almond meal, almond flour has a finer texture and lighter color. It adds texture and a subtle nutty flavor. I haven’t tested this cake with almond meal.
  • Agave nectar: You can use maple syrup as a substitute.
  • Coconut oil: Coconut oil makes a wonderful substitute for butter and other oils.
  • Mango puree: When making mango puree, soft and ripe mangoes are the best. Check How to make mango puree for instructions.
  • Blueberries: Fresh blueberries are best.

How to make it

You can find a complete list of ingredients with exact amounts and instructions in the recipe card below.

NOTE: Batter and dough made with room temperature ingredients will yield the best results.

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180° C. Line a 16 cm springform cake tin with baking paper and grease it with coconut oil.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: oat flour, white rice flour, fine almond flour, and baking powder.

Step 3

Add mango puree (check How to make mango puree for instructions), coconut oil, and agave syrup and mix everything together with a hand mixer until properly combined. Adjust sweetness if needed.

Step 4

Gently fold in fresh blueberries into the batter.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for approx. 40-45 minutes ( or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean).
Note: After approx. 30 minutes, loosely cover the cake with a sheet of aluminum foil to prevent the top of the cake from burning.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and let it cool fully before serving. Once cooled, sprinkle it with powdered xylitol and top with blueberries.

Step 7

Slice and serve.

How to store it

  • Store leftover cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

How to freeze it

  • Let the cake cool completely before freezing.
  • Freeze the slices in a single layer on a flat surface, then pile the slices into a sealed, freezer-safe container.
  • Slices can be stored in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.

Tips and how-tos

How to tell mango is ripe
  • To check if the mangoes are ripe, press the mango a little and if it feels soft, then it is ripe.
  • To ripen a mango quickly, store it on the counter in the fruit bowl or in a paper bag, with a few bananas.
How to make mango puree
  • Rinse the mango well with water and wipe it with a kitchen cloth.
  • Peel the mango and discard the peel.
  • Cut off all the flesh around the pit and discard the pit.
  • Cut the flesh into big chunks.
  • Place the mango chunks into a food processor or a blender, and blend briefly until smooth (until it forms a thick mango puree).
  • Use the mango puree immediately, or store it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Hiya, sorry to be a pain but oat flour is not considered GF here in Australia. Can you suggest another alternative?

Hi, Alison! Brown rice flour may be a good substitute.

This looks and sounds delicious! Would like to see recipes converted to US measurements. When I look it up, the conversations differ depending on the site ..? Thank you!

Hi, Margaret! I use grams because it is the most accurate way of measuring, especially in gluten-free baking where even the slightest difference in grams can mess up the recipe. I do have a plugin that automatically does the conversion to US measurements but it is disabled at the moment as it doesn’t seem to be very accurate. A good kitchen scale is inexpensive and easy to use, and it will ensure that you have a correct measurement of the ingredients.

How many mangoes does it usually take to make 200 grams of purée?

Nensi Beram August 16, 2022 - 10:16 pm

Hi, Charlene! 1 whole mango (weighing 8-9 ounces) should be enough.
