Mango muffins are tender, citrus-y, and delicious. They are a great snack and an even better breakfast. These muffins will brighten even a rainy, dreary morning!
This recipe originally appeared as a contributor post on Anyonita Nibbles.
Muffins are such a fun breakfast. And they are a great after school snack as well. I used whole wheat flour in these muffins to give them that extra-boost of fiber and nutrition!
The mango adds a fruity sweetness so the kids won't even know they are getting some extra nutrition in there. Score one for mom! 🙂
By the way, you can make a double batch and freeze them to keep on hand for a great grab-and-go breakfast - perfect for those teenagers who just can't seem to get out of bed on time (not that we have any of those in this house!)
