Mango Macadamia Nut Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a loaf pan.
• In a bowl, cream the butter and sugar together. Add the eggs and mix well. Add the mango, orange juice, coconut, and macadamia nuts and combine.
• In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Add the dry ingredients to the mango mixture. Stir until the batter combines.
• Pour into the loaf pan and bake for about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil, shiny-side up; smooth out the creases. Make sure all your tools are dry.
• Chop the chocolate into 1/2-inch pieces with a large knife. Place all but 1 cup of the chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds, then stir with a rubber spatula. Continue microwaving and stirring at 30-second intervals until melted, 3 to 5 minutes total. Immediately add the reserved chopped chocolate to the bowl; stir vigorously until melted and shiny. Don't worry if there are a few small unmelted pieces.
• Pour the chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet; use the rubber spatula to spread it into a 10-to-12-inch circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
• Press the coconut, macadamia nuts, mangoes and ginger into the chocolate, arranging them so each bite has a mix of flavors and textures. Let the bark harden completely at room temperature, about 1 hour. (If the room is warm, you may need to freeze the bark for a few minutes.) Break into pieces and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the diced mango and the grated ginger in a saucepan and place over medium-low heat. Cook mango slowly, stirring until it releases its juice and begins to simmer, about 5 to 7 minutes. Simmer about 3 minutes more until mango is tender and juices are bubbly. Remove mango pieces with a slotted spoon to a small bowl. Leave mango juice in pan and bring to a boil. Stirring constantly, boil the mango juice until it is reduced by 3/4 and is syrupy. Scrape syrup into bowl with mango and add brown sugar and honey. Stir gently to combine. Transfer mango to a lightly buttered 2-quart shallow bake pan (a round 9-inch cake pan works as well). Sprinkle the Oatmeal Macadamia Nut Streusel over the mango filling, covering evenly. Place baking dish on a cookie sheet (to catch any bubbling filling) and place in the oven. Bake 25-30 minutes until streusel is golden and the filling is bubbly. Cool to room temperature before serving.
• Combine flour, oatmeal and both sugars in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to mix well. Add the butter to the bowl, replace the top and pulse the machine to incorporate the butter. Work quickly and use short pulses to make a dry, loose, fluffy mixture resembling sand. Do not allow the butter to soften or make a dough. Transfer the streusel to a small bowl and add the nuts and coconut. Toss by hand to mix well. Reserve until needed.

• Divide evenly between two 9 x 5 greased loaf pans and bake for 60-70 minutes or until centers test done.
• Remove from pans and cool completely on racks.
• Wrap in foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In another bowl, beat eggs, oil and vanilla. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in mangoes, dates and nuts (batter will be stiff). , Spoon into two greased 8x4-in. loaf pans. Bake for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Steps:

• For streusel:
• Stir all ingredients in small bowl to blend.
• For gingerbread:
• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Butter 9x9x2-inch metal baking pan. Whisk first 6 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Coarsely puree mangoes in food processor. Transfer 1 cup mango puree to large bowl (reserve any remaining puree for another use). Add buttermilk, oil, and eggs to puree; whisk until blended. Add flour mixture; stir just until combined. Transfer half of batter (about 2 cups) to prepared pan. Sprinkle half of streusel over. Spoon remaining batter over, smooth evenly with spatula, then sprinkle with remaining streusel.
• Bake bread until springy to touch and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool completely in pan on rack. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and store at room temperature.) Cut bread into 9 squares and serve.
• Baker's wisdom:
• Buttermilk and baking soda help give the gingerbread a tender texture.
