This year we took complete advantage of the mango season. We got really good mangoes here and that was something I was missing back in New York. I have always made any dessert that involves mangoes using canned mango pulp, but since we got very good mangoes here, I made it using fresh mangoes. Mango and chocolate totally mean dessert and hence I had made these mango and chocolate chip muffins a little sweeter than I normally would. This week, the theme I chose for my blogging marathon is desserts and this is the first dessert that I chose. The bright and vibrant yellow color of the mangoes along with the chocolate chip was so attractive. I made these eggless muffins with part wheat flour and part all-purpose flour. I also added a little bit of flax meal for added nutrients. Depending on how sweet your mango is, make adjustments to the sugar. My muffins were a bit on the sweeter side as I had intended them to be. Preparation time – 15 minsBaking time – 20 – 25 minutesDifficulty level – easy
