Much adapted from a weight-watchers recipe, this is healthier for you than the high-fat cakes and biscuits cramming the supermarket aisles at this time of year. Pureed mangoes make it very moist without butter. I mean tinned mangoes and granulated splenda but the program gets confused if I put that in ingredients.

Ingredients

6 serv.
  • self-raising flour5 ounces
  • mangoes425 g

    drained and pureed in a blender

  • Splenda sugar substitute2 -3 tablespoons
  • vanilla essence1 teaspoon
  • egg whites2
  • egg yolk1
  • low-fat margarine1⁄2 ounce

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven. I do mine to 160 degrees but it is fan-assisted, so if yours isn't I would do 180 or even 200.

  2. 2

    Use the low-fat spread to grease an 8-inch loaf tin.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, whisk the egg-whites to a froth.

  4. 4

    In another bowl, stir the flour, mango puree, vanilla essence and egg yolk together.

  5. 5

    Fold the whisked whites into this mixture.

  6. 6

    Pour into the greased tin and bake for 30-40mins.

  7. 7

    Let cool, then slice.
