Mango Bread
Description
I like to use the Kent Mango. This is a bread that you will love toasted for breakfast or served with a scoop of butter pecan ice cream any day.
Ingredients to Serve-10 slices
Ingredients
¼ Cup Butter
¾ cup Sugar
1 Medium Very Ripe mangos pureed
1 Medium Mango, peeled and diced
1 Large Egg, slightly beaten
1 Teaspoon Pure Vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons Lime juice
1 ½ Cups All purpose flour
1 ½ Teaspoon Baking powder
½ Teaspoon Baking soda
½ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
1 Cup Chopped pecans
Preparation
To prepare the batter: In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar. Add the mango, egg, vanilla, and lime juice. In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Add the mango mixture to the flour mixture stirring until the dry ingredients are just moistened. Stir in the pecans and mangos.
To bake the mango bread: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9x5x3 inch non stick pan with non stick cooking spray. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center, comes out clean. Cool in the pan 10 minutes before removing from the loaf pan. Allow to cook for 1 hour on a rack before serving.
