Honey Orange Mango Bread
This mango bread gets its moisture from both the honey and the coconut oil, along with the moist mangoes themselves. The coconut oil lends a allusive tropical flavor to the bread. Try not to overbake the bread as it will end up dry and flavorless. Feel free to play with the spices too. I picked ginger, cardamom and white pepper, but cinnamon, nutmeg or black pepper would work lovely with this bread too.
