Mango Brown Sugar Bread

March 15, 2018 by Samantha 7 Comments

Mango Brown Sugar Bread is a perfectly sweet quick bread. Bursting with mango and brown sugar flavours, it’s a delicious mango recipe.

One of my favourite parts of travelling is finding new foods and dishes that I can recreate at home. We were lucky enough to escape the snow for some serious sunshine in Maui where we literally did nothing besides make sandcastles with the kids and play in the pool. It was awesome.

While we were driving from grabbing shave ice one day, we stopped at a roadside fruit stand. I grabbed a loaf of banana bread and a loaf of mango brown sugar bread (shave ice is the better cousin of a snow cone and SO delish! I highly recommend trying it if you can find it). We were blown away by the mango bread. So tasty and moist like banana bread, but not too sweet.

My kids are currently obsessed with mangoes so this recipe is perfectly timed.

How to pick a mango at the grocery store? They should be slightly soft, but still firm, similar to an avocado. Mangoes will have a floral fruity smell at the stem and if they’ve gone off, they’ll smell almost alcoholic. Since there are so many type and colours of mangoes it’s often best not to judge ripeness by their colour until you’re familiar with buying one specific type.

I remember hanging out with a friend one day and she completely sliced her hand open while trying to cut a mango. Don’t do that. Even to make this bread.

Through much practice I’ve found that the easiest way to break a mango down is to cut the stem off the bottom and make flat surface to stand the mango up on. Then I peel the skin off (I use a very sharp knife, but a vegetable peeler will also work). Cut away half the mango while avoiding the pit. Same with the other side and then cut the thin sides off.

Here are a couple of other breads that aren’t banana flavoured to get your loaf game going strong:

  • Coconut Lime Loaf
  • Blueberry Ice Cream Bread (not going to lie, I am totally intrigued and have to make this one!)
  • Zucchini Bread
  • Pumpkin Raisin Bread

    Made this yesterday in my mini ceramic loaf pan. Awesome!!!! I didn't have raisins or nuts nor put the sliced mango on top. But I added some flaked coconut to the batter. I was not sure how mango would taste in bread . I needn't have worried. It was very good! Had several compliments on it.

These Banana Buckwheat Donuts are happening this week for school lunches. Kids dig them. I dig them. Done deal. I just need a hot 30 min to make them happen. 

A friend also turned the recipe into a loaf so there are options out there if you don’t have a donut 🍩 pan.

This 4-Ingredient Green Smoothie gets a bucket loa This 4-Ingredient Green Smoothie gets a bucket load of spinach into our diets before we leave the house for school and work. It's one of my long time smoothies that I make for my kids. 

We've had it a few days in a row now to help us hit reset in the new year. 

The omega oil is optional and I sometimes switch out the banana for a navel orange for a different flavour profile. Oh and if you're an Orange Julius fan, try a 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract - you won't regret it!
