These sweet, tropical muffins make a tasty breakfast or snack on-the-go! They are soft, tender, and just a touch fruity. Muffins freeze very well, so feel free to wrap up half of the batch of baked muffin in an airtight bag and pop them in the freezer for a rainy day. To warm them back up, heat them up in the oven or toaster oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes, or microwave them for 30-40 seconds on high.

Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups frozen mango chunks
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds, or chopped pecans (optional)
Method
- Preheat oven to 400°F and grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, mix milk, sugar, vegetable oil, egg and vanilla together until combined. Add wet ingredients to dry and stir together until just combined. Gently fold mangoes into batter.
- Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Top evenly with almonds (if using).
- Bake until light golden-brown, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean, about 25-30 minutes. Invert muffin tin onto cooling rack to release muffins. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
