Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• Whipped cream for topping (optional)

How to Make Fluffy Pancakes with Mango Sauce

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
6. While the pancakes are cooking, prepare the mango sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the diced mango, lime juice, and honey. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mango is soft and slightly syrupy. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
7. Stack the pancakes on plates and drizzle generously with the warm mango sauce. Top with whipped cream if desired.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use fresh, ripe mango for the best flavor in your sauce.
• Don’t overmix the pancake batter; a few lumps will ensure fluffy pancakes.
• Adjust the consistency of the mango sauce by adding a splash of water if it’s too thick.

Easy Variations

• Add chocolate chips or nuts to the pancake batter for extra flavor.
• Substitute the mango with other fruits like blueberries, strawberries, or peaches.
• For a dairy-free option, use almond milk or coconut milk and substitute the butter with coconut oil.

What to Serve With It

• Fresh fruit salad
• Maple syrup or honey
• Scrambled eggs for a savory balance
• Bacon or sausage for a hearty breakfast
• A side of yogurt for added creaminess

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on a skillet over low heat until warmed through. The mango sauce can also be stored in the fridge for up to a week.
