Ingredients

2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
½ cup whole-wheat flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup olive oil
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon almond extract
1 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup walnuts
1 ripe mango, peeled and diced, divided
Nonstick baking spray with flour for the pan

Method

Melt the chocolate over a water bath and let it cool slightly. Combine the flour, cinnamon and salt separately.
Whisk the oil with both extracts. Add the sugar, then the eggs one at a time, followed by the cooled melted chocolate.
Fold in the dry ingredients just until combined, then add the walnuts and half the mango.
Heat the oven to 350°F and grease an 8-inch square pan. Spread in the batter and scatter the remaining mango on top.
Bake for 40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely before cutting into 16 squares.
