Clean Eating Mango Bread

This mango bread is super moist, very dense, and full of crunchy walnut pieces. It’s like banana bread but instead of bananas, it’s made with mangos. It’s great to make during mango season or you can also make it using frozen mango.

You know when you check your freezer and realize there is stuff in there you totally forgot about? This happened to me last week when I discovered that I still had my freezer full with mango that I had leftover from making my No Churn Vegan Mango Ice Cream. So, I decided to make this Clean Eating Mango Bread.

If you haven’t tried cardamom before, don’t skip it! Buy a little bit of ground cardamom at your grocery store (it’s not super expensive) and try it this one time to see if you like it.

Cardamom is a wonderful mild spice and works well in baked goods. Just a little bit of it adds a wonderful hint of flavor that completely covers the taste of spelt flour present in almost all baked goods that are baked with it.

Because this mango bread is so dense, it takes a while to bake it. But over-baking it is also not a good idea. So start checking it after about 45 to 50 minutes. It took 1 hour to bake in my oven, but baking times might vary so be careful.

Enjoy!
