This Easy Mango bread brings sweet mangoes, cinnamon, pecans, and coconut into perfect harmony in this easy-to-make sweet bread. It is a family and friend favorite.
It seems as if spring has sprung, or it is at the least trying to move that way. Some cold weather is coming in tomorrow night, but it is supposed to rebound Monday afternoon, so all is well with the world. That report alone inspired me to cook something spring-ish. Now, for all you grammatically correct people, I know that is not a proper word, so please don’t send me a bunch of emails about my grammar. This Easy Mango Bread is so quick, delectable, and dependable. Don’t you have any ripe mangoes in yet? No problem, use frozen. Most frozen fruit I have worked with is delicious as it was frozen at its peak, making it super sweet.
I would bet that you have never had mango bread before. Well, prepare to have your taste buds tantalized!! This Easy Mango Bread comes together quickly and bakes in about one hour.
You are going to love this Easy Mango Bread. It is so delicious that people tell me it is addicting. Proceed with caution because it is pretty much that way. Bake one for your loved ones today, and let me know what you think.
Other sweet bread you will love!

Beth Pierce

Debbie Moreno
Delicioso gracias por la receta
Beth Pierce
My pleasure!
Katie
I LOVE this recipe!! This is my fourth loaf, but one hour does not seem to be enough in my oven. More like 1.5 hours but the edges get very dark and I worry about burning it. Any recommendations or adjustments I can try?
Beth Pierce
Thanks, Katie! Maybe your oven temp is off a little bit. Once browned to your liking cover the top with a loose piece of aluminum foil. You could also raise the rack in your oven so your bread is not so close to the heating element.
Steve
Turned out fantastic. Had it in the oven 10 min longer. Used walnuts instead of pecans.
Don’t skip the coconut. Very nice flavour throughout.
Thanks for the recipe.
Beth Pierce
Thanks, Steve! So glad that you liked the mango bread. It is one of my favorites.
Vivian
The recipe is a bomb! I was not sure how will taste mango bread even I love mango. Follow the recipe by step and you will have a very testy delicious mango bread. Please do not skip the coconut flakes and almond this is the key of the flavor.
Beth Pierce
Thanks, Vivian! I am so glad that you liked the mango bread. We love it too!
Tamie
Hi! We are late in the game finding this recipe. It seems like this is such a wonderful recipe, but I think we made the mistake of using turbinado sugar. The first batch my husband made, the taste was in the bland side. The second batch I made and added extra cinnamon, and vanilla, still on the bland side. I don’t know what we’re doing wrong, except maybe it’s the type of sugar that we’re using! Any ideas? Thanks!
Beth Pierce
Not sure, Tamie. I get complements on this recipe all the time.
Kathryn Spadaro

Your mango recipe is delicious. I have a neighbor who has a mango tree. He gave us a bunch of mangos. What a wonderful way to enjoy them. Thanks
Cindy
Beth Pierce
You are most welcome, Cindy! Sof glad that you enjoy the mango bread.

Hi Beth
Can you substitute eggs for something else to make it more vegan?
Thanks
Patricia
Beth Pierce
I just do not have enough experience with vegan cooking to answer that. Perhaps the readers have some ideas!
Shawn
To make it vegan you can replace each egg with one tablespoon of ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons of water. Add them to a bowl and let it sit until it is kind of gelatinous and goopy. I would also add two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar to help with the reaction needed for leavening.
Karen Alessandroni
Can I substitute coconut oil for the vegetable oil?
Beth Pierce
Yes you can.
Chelsie
I made 2 loaves of this tonight and they turned out PERFECT! Thank you so much for sharing, I will definitely be making this more!
Beth Pierce
Thanks Chelsie! So happy that you liked the mango bread!
Mel
Hi, I am hoping I can make this mango bread tomorrow. I wasn’t able to find shredded coconut but found two other options. Coconut chips and toasted maple infused coconut chips. Would either of these work?
Thank you.
Beth Pierce
I think the coconut chips would be kind of big for baking with. I wonder if you could chop them up?
Mel
Easy enough! Thank you 😊
Beth Pierce
My pleasure!
Brooke
I made this for a coworker and she loved! So moist and tasty. I left out the nuts and used sweetened coconut flakes.
Beth Pierce
Thanks Brooke! So glad that she liked it!
Tina
I’ve now made this twice. The first time I made it, I’d tested it with a toothpick and it came out clean. I soon learned that it wasn’t quite done. It sunk in the middle.
After tasting the edges, I discovered a really wonderful tasting bread.
I started all over again. After it was in the oven 60 mins, I covered it with foil and baked it another 10 mins.
It’s cooling now, so I expect wonderful results. I’m really looking forward to sharing.
Another thing I noticed was that the first time, I had left the mango in huge chunks, not small, diced pieces. I chopped them smaller with the second loaf.
My kitchen smells wonderful. Thank you for a keeper recipe!
Beth Pierce
So glad that you like it. The pleasure is all mine. Thanks for the tips!
Gail Shealey
This mango bread recipe is absolutely delicious! I’m making my 4th batch now. I’m making mini loafs for friends and family. Turns out perfect every time! This recipe is a keeper, for sure!
Vanessa
Can I substitute the flour for whole wheat?
Beth Pierce
Whole wheat flour changes recipes so I am reluctant to advise on that since I have not tried it. Please let us know if you do and what the results were.
Melina
Hello! My mangoes are EXTREMELY ripe to the point where they’ll end up more as a purée rather than cubes – will this affect the texture of the bread? Thank you in advance!
Beth Pierce
I am not sure since I have never tried.
Tina Buchanan
I loved the recipe, but I found that my very ripe mangos which were not holding into cubes tended to sink to the bottom of the batter. Because of this, the batter around the mango did not bake. It was edible, but next time I will not use such ripe mangos.
Beth Pierce
Thanks for the tip, Tina!
Gail Shealey
I made 4 mini loaves and baked for 45 minutes. They turned out perfect and we’re absolutely delicious! Gave a couple of them to friends who raved with compliments. This recipe is a definite keeper!
Beth Pierce
Thanks Gail! Glad that you liked them!
