4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons turbinado raw cane sugar
6 tablespoons low-fat buttermilk
3 large egg whites
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 mango, peeled, cored, and sliced
3/4 cup peeled, cored and sliced pineapple
3/4 cup diagonally sliced banana
Caramelized banana slices, recipe follows

Serving Suggestion: Fat-free frozen vanilla yogurt

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • Grease and flour the cake pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Cream the butter with 1/2 cup of the sugar until light and fluffy. Add another 1/2 cup of sugar and beat until incorporated. Gradually add in the buttermilk, scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the egg whites in 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • In a separate bowl stir together the flour and baking powder. Add the flour mix into the batter with the vanilla and mix together until well incorporated.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and arrange the mango, pineapple, and banana decoratively on the top. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Let the torte cool slightly and slice. Serve each slice warm with a small scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt, 2 caramelized banana slices and 2 tablespoons of raspberry sauce.
  • Slice the bananas on the diagonal into 24 slices and place on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the sugar and caramelize under a broiler for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Place raspberries, sweetener, and lemon juice in a blender and process until smooth. Strain and set aside.
