Notes

  1. Oil:  I used sunflower oil here, but you can use any other neutral flavoured cooking oil. Coconut oil may also be used to get a nice coconut-ty flavour. But the drawback is that if you refrigerate the cake, it hardens because of the coconut oil. So let it sit outside for 10-15 minutes to let it soften before eating. This won't be a problem if you use other vegetable oils.
  2. Milk: I have used fresh milk, but coconut milk or any other plant based milk will work.
  3. Mango Pulp: I always use freshly made mango pulp, but frozen will also work. Make sure to let it thaw completely and let it come to room temperature before using.
  4. Vegan: This cake is naturally vegan if you use coconut milk and oil
