Mango-Pineapple Buckle

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for the baking dish
1 small or 1/2 medium pineapple (about 1 3/4 pounds), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 ripe mangoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish. Toss the pineapple, mangoes, and brown sugar together in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda.

    Step 2

    Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a mixing bowl until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Add the flour mixture; beat until just combined. Measure out 1 cup fruit mixture; fold the rest into the batter.

    Step 3

    Spread the batter into the prepared baking dish; sprinkle the reserved fruit over the top. Bake until golden on top and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Serve warm.
