Recipe video above. All too often, mango muffin recipes lack actual mango flavour. It's not enough to just stir chopped mango into a muffin, and one mango is not enough for 12 muffins!But these muffins DO actually taste of mango, with mango puree stirred into the batter and plenty of chopped mango added! They sit tall and proud, with a crunchy top, lovely hint of coconut flavour and a beautiful soft crumb thanks to the moisture from the mangoes. You will need two very big mangos or three medium ones. If you are short, make sure you use the right amount for the puree then lose out on the chopped mango.

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C/425°F (200°C fan-forced). Spray a muffin tin with canola oil or grease well with butter. (Note 5)
  2. Batter - Whisk Dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk all the Wet ingredients well in a separate large bowl until smooth. Pour the Dry ingredients into the Wet ingredients. Use a rubber spatula to mix together until the flour is almost incorporated.
  3. Add-ins - Add the chopped mango and coconut, then mix until you no longer see flour - stop mixing, even if there are a few flour lumps, else the muffin will be dry and tough. The mixture will be thicker than typical muffin batters because it gets a lot of moisture from the mangoes as it bakes.
  4. Crunchy top - Divide between muffin holes, it should be slightly mounded (as pictured in post). Sprinkle the top of each with 1/2 teaspoon of Demerara sugar.
  5. Bake - Place in the oven. Immediately turn the oven down to 200°C/390°F (180°C fan). Bake for 24 minutes or until the surface is golden and crunchy, and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  6. Cool - Leave in the muffin tin for 10 minutes then transfer onto a cooling rack. Cool for at least another 10 minutes before grabbing one!
