Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1/2 cup mango puree
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. This ensures that the leavening agent and seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, mango puree, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogenous. The mango puree adds natural sweetness and moisture to the batter.
- Combine: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently just until combined; the batter should remain a little lumpy to keep the pancakes light and fluffy. Avoid overmixing as it can make the pancakes tough.
- Cook pancakes: Heat a nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil. Using a 1/4 cup measurement, pour the batter onto the pan for each pancake. Cook them until bubbles start forming on the surface and the edges look set, then flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the pancakes are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Serve the pancakes warm topped with extra mango slices, syrup, or other tropical fruits of your choice for a refreshing breakfast treat.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, use almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk instead of regular milk.
- Do not overmix the batter to ensure pancakes stay tender and fluffy.
- You can substitute fresh mango puree with frozen mango puree if fresh mangoes are not in season.
- Adjust sugar quantity based on the sweetness of your mangoes or your preference.
- This recipe can be doubled or halved to suit your serving needs.
