Servings: persons

2 cups sliced mango
1 1/8 cups white sugar, divided
1 squeeze lemon juice
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground nutmeg
10 tablespoons butter, at room temperature, divided
1 cup milk

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12x12-inch glass baking dish.
2
Toss mango with 1/8 cup sugar and lemon juice in a bowl.
3
Mix remaining 1 cup sugar and flour in a deep mixing bowl. Add cinnamon and nutmeg. Beat in 8 tablespoons butter until mixture forms lumps.
4
Beat milk and egg together until smooth, about 30 seconds. Add vanilla extract and beat for 10 seconds. Slowly add milk mixture to flour mixture and blend until mostly smooth; a few lumps are okay.
5
Spread mango in the prepared baking dish. Pour batter evenly on top. Shake dish gently to incorporate mango into the batter and eliminate gaps.

Meanwhile, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a saute pan. Add coconut; toast until golden.

9
Cool in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Cut into 6 equal squares and gently remove with a spatula.
