Ingredients

Scale

Gather these ingredients to make your Mango Pancakes:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup milk

  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter, plus more for greasing the griddle

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup ripe mango, peeled and pureed

  • Optional: Pinch of cardamom or ginger for added flavor

Instructions

Prepare the Batter:

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

  3. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pancakes. A few lumps are okay.

  4. Add Mango Puree: Gently fold in the mango puree until it is evenly distributed throughout the batter. If using, add a pinch of cardamom or ginger at this stage.

Cook the Pancakes:

  1. Heat the Griddle: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. You can test the heat by sprinkling a few drops of water onto the surface; if the water sizzles and evaporates quickly, the griddle is ready.

  2. Pour the Batter: Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.

  3. Cook Until Bubbly: Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.

  4. Flip and Cook: Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottom.

  5. Repeat: Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed.

Serve:

  1. Stack and Serve: Stack the Mango Pancakes on a plate and serve immediately.

  2. Add Toppings: Top with your favorite toppings, such as whipped cream, fresh mango slices, shredded coconut, maple syrup, or a drizzle of honey.
