tuesdays with dorie

For those who asked, Tuesdays with Dorie is just a group of bloggers that chooses recipes from her baking cookbook, Baking: From My Home to Yours. They bake a different recipe each week.

This week’s recipe was fresh mango bread. I omitted the raisins from the recipe as I don’t care for raisins in my bread. It also took two mangoes to yield the necessary amount of mango in the recipe. It was yummy! The mango is a little odd in baked goods as it appears a little “hairy”. I’m not sure I’d give this bread away without the explanation that mangoes just do that.

If I make it again (I might!), I’d actually play around with adding some fresh ginger and more lime zest and/or add lime juice. I couldn’t really taste the lime flavor in my loaf.

I’d also think about doing the bread with peaches (though I’d omit the lime).
