Mango Bread

You will probably get to see a lot of mango recipes here because I am obsessed with mangoes. I can survive on mangoes for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy. While I was out in San Francisco, I decided to bake mango bread for my cousins and it came out very very well. one of the most delicious things i've ever made. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. 

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 stick unsalted butter (if you use salted butter, then don't use salt)
• 2 large eggs
• 3 ripe bananas
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 cups all purpose flour 
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda 
• 1 teaspoon salt (not necessary if you use salted butter)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease a loaf pan.

mix the sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.Make sure the sugar is at room temperature. DO NOT use cold or frozen sugar.. it comes out lumpy. Then Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. i recommend using a whisk. 

Peel the mango and remove flesh from the pit. Then In a small bowl, mash the mango  with a fork. Mix in the milk and cinnamon. In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt

Add the banana mixture to the creamed mixture and stir until combined. Add dry ingredients, mixing just until flour disappears. The batter should be a little thicker than a cake mixture

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Set aside to cool on a rack for 15 minutes. Remove bread from pan, invert onto rack and cool completely before slicing.

Let it cool for about 10mins and serve. I love mango bread with a little bit of honey drizzle. 

Enjoy :)
