Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil
- Additional diced mangoes for serving (optional)
- Maple syrup or honey for serving
How to Make Mango Pancakes:
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter or oil until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as it may result in dense pancakes.
- Gently fold in the diced mangoes into the batter, reserving some for topping.
- Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour a ladleful of batter onto the skillet, using the back of the ladle to spread it into a round shape.
- Cook the pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
- Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Stack the cooked pancakes on a plate, layering them with diced mangoes between each pancake for an extra burst of flavor.
- Drizzle the pancakes with maple syrup or honey, if desired, and serve immediately.
- Garnish with additional diced mangoes and a sprinkle of powdered sugar for a beautiful presentation.
Note: Feel free to customize your Mango Pancakes by adding toppings such as whipped cream, toasted coconut flakes, or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
