When my Hawaiian family introduced me to fruit bread, I was hooked! My recipe for moist, sweet mango-banana bread is a little slice of island life. It's great for breakfast, snacks, or dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 fresh mango , peeled, seeded, and chopped
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 0.75 cups unsalted butter , softened
- 0.5 cups white sugar
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1.25 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups mashed banana
- 0.5 cups toasted shredded coconut
- 0.25 cups chopped walnuts
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

2
Purée 1/4 of chopped mango in a food processor or blender. It should yield about 1/2 cup puréed mango and set aside. Reserve remaining chopped mango.
-

Sift flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and pumpkin pie spice together in a large bowl.

4
Combine butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a small bowl until blended. Mix in eggs and vanilla extract. Fold into dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in remaining chopped mango, puréed mango, banana, coconut, and walnuts. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.

Char Siu (Chinese Barbeque Pork)
My favorite Chinese food ever! Chinese dark soy sauce is actually a key component. Serve with rice or noodles.
Grandpa's Tomato Gravy
This tomato gravy recipe was handed down from my Grandpa, who was born and raised in South Georgia. It is really a sauce (because there is no flour in it), but you can eat it for breakfast over biscuits, at room temperature like a soup at lunch, or the way we ate it at his house over rice with hoe cakes for dinner. It is simple to make but tastes so good. It keeps in the refrigerator for several days, and I think it tastes better the next day.
