These fluffy, golden pancakes are infused with sweet mango puree and topped with fresh mango slices, giving them a delicious tropical taste. Whether you enjoy them for breakfast, brunch, or even dessert, these pancakes will transport your taste buds to a sunny paradise.

Ingredients

For the Pancakes:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk (or coconut milk for extra tropical flavor)
  • ½ cup fresh mango puree (blended ripe mango)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

For the Toppings:

  • ½ cup fresh mango slices
  • Maple syrup or honey
  • Whipped cream or Greek yogurt (optional)
  • Toasted coconut flakes (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Mango Puree

  1. Peel and dice a ripe mango.
  2. Blend the mango pieces until smooth to create a mango puree. Set aside.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3: Combine the Wet Ingredients

  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, mango puree, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
  2. Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the pancakes dense.

Step 4: Cook the Pancakes

  1. Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  2. Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake. You can also add fresh mango slices onto each batter (this is optional).
  3. Cook for 2–3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface. Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Repeat until all the batter is used.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

  1. Stack the warm pancakes on a plate and top them with fresh mango slices.
  2. Drizzle with maple syrup or honey for extra sweetness.
  3. Add a dollop of whipped cream or Greek yogurt for creaminess, and sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes for a tropical touch.
