Ingredients:(For 8 muffins)
- All-purpose flour - 125g
- Baking powder - 1 tsp

- Sugar - 100g
- Salt a pinch
- Mango chunks (sweet & ripe) - 100g
- Vanilla - 1 tsp
Step-by-Step Instructions: How to Bake Your Mango Muffins
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a muffin tin with 8 paper liners or grease the cavities well.
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the unsalted butter and sugar together. Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes pale yellow, light, and wonderfully creamy. This step is key to a light muffin texture!
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to fully incorporate them into the batter.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, sieve (or whisk well) the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gently add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Mix only until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough muffins. A few small lumps are perfectly fine!
- Gently fold in the sweet, ripe mango chunks. Distribute them evenly throughout the batter to ensure every bite is bursting with fruit.
- Spoon the prepared batter into your muffin tin, filling each liner about halfway full.
- Bake in the pre-heated oven for 17-20 minutes. The muffins are ready when the tops are beautifully golden and a skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy this incredible tropical treat!
