Another name for these tasty treats? "Must-have mango muffins." This grab-and-go breakfast option is packed with serious flavour, thanks especially to cinnamon, ground ginger, and mangoes. Once the batter has been created, fill 12 muffin cups (don't forget to coat paper liners with nonstick spray) and bake for 18 minutes at 400°F. Serve fresh out of the oven or store these baked goods securely in an airtight container. Even better? Try freezing a few for busy mornings. Make note that mangoes are available year-round, but one of the best varieties, the juicy, jam-sweet Alphonso, is only available from mid-April through May. Other excellent late-spring varieties to seek out are Haitian and Ataulfo mangoes.
