Fresh Mango Bread. Deliciousness in a carb.
For this week's
Tuesdays with Dorie selection, Kelly of
Baking with the Boys selected
Fresh Mango Bread on page 45 of Dorie's book,
Baking: From My Home to Yours.I love mangos! Plain mangos. Mangos with chili pepper. Mango lassi. Oh yes, I heart mango!
I cut the bread into little pieces to make it easier for my co-workers to grab a bite. The pottery is my platter from
Gary Holt Pottery in Berkeley, California (see
this for more info).
This recipe took 2 1/2 small mangos to get the right amount of diced mango. The bread was very very easy to mix and put together. I skipped the raisins and went all mango, all the time.
While baking, I thought the bread would overflow out of the pan! It really doomed up...but then fell while cooling. That happens a lot with my breads...they are such a tease in the oven.
The bread had a nice blend of spices, and the fresh mango was delicious. Be sure to check out the other
Tuesdays with Dorie bakers! You can find the recipe on Kelly's website
Baking with the Boys or buy Dorie's great book!
