Basically, just combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl, all the separate ingredients in another bowl, and then slowly mix in the wet ingredients into the dry ones. Fold in the mango chunks and bake for around 20 minutes.

What Makes this Muffins Recipe SO Good?

The secret for totally delicious mango muffins? Using great mango!

That’s easy if you are in Hawaii; after all, they have some of the most delicious and juicy mango varieties in the world. The most popular one is the Haden variety which is a mango that’s incredibly flavorful!

Haden mango has vibrant red, yellow, and green skin and bold and intense yellow flesh.

However, if you are not in Hawaii but are craving the tropical flavor these muffins bring to your day, you can definitely use any mango you have on hand.

Sometimes we use Champagne Mango that we get at Costco or Kent mango that we get at our local Asian grocery store.

Baking with Mango FAQs

Can fresh mangoes be cooked?

Yes. It’s important to peel off the skin first, and you’ll want to dice up the fresh mango if you plan on baking with them.

Can you substitute frozen mango for fresh when baking?

Yes. Just be sure to thaw the mango thoroughly and pat it dry before mixing it in.

What color is a ripe mango?

Usually, ripe mangoes will have a yellow, orange, or reddish color on the skin. You can tell if it’s ripe by whether it’s hard or soft. Keep hard mangoes on the counter until they have ripened up.
