I loved this bread. I made a few changes that perhaps made it better. Instead of the oil and the butter, I used 1/2 C of sour cream, and 1/4 C of milk. Instead of the 1 1/2 C of sugar (too sweet for my taste), I cut calories by using 1/3 C honey, and 2/3 C splenda gradular (or 18 packets of sugar substite). I didn't add in any raisins, coconuts, or walnuts (my boyfriend dislikes all of them), but added one chopped nectarine with the mango (I used 2 mangoes, a little over 3 cups). Instead of the cinnamon, I decided to try using ginger (1 teaspoon)--and it turned out great! Finally, I used 6 texas-sized muffin tins instead of the loaves--they were ready in 30 minutes. For about 300 calories per 6 oz muffin (with the changes), this was amazing... For those whose bread did not rise: This uses baking soda exclusively, which requires an acid ingrediant to "activiate" it. Try using buttermilk or yogurt for some of the butter or oil, or add a teaspoon of lemon juice. I used sour cream--same idea. I had no problem with having this rise. Or, try using baking powder for some of the baking soda (I used 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda)

This was really delicious. When I tried it the day I made it, it was just okay. The taste was good, but there was very little mango flavor. After being in the fridge for a few days, it was delicious. It needs a couple of days for the flavors to come together. One thing I noticed is that it didn't rise very much, and the mangos settled to the bottom of the bread. What I'll do next time is chop the mangoes into smaller pieces and mix the mangoes with a little flour before I mix them into the batter. Regarding the rising, I read in another review that this is the way it is. This is a great way to use mangoes.

This bread is great because it is extremely moist and filled with a range of textures. However, if you really want a strong mango flavor, be sure to use VERY ripe mangos. I brought this bread to the office and the whole loaf was gone in less than two hours!

It always amazes me that people on this site change the stated recipes all around and then have the audacity to rate it low! Something I'll never understand. Anyhow, tried the recipe as is with chopping the mangos and didn't care for the texture, so I made it again and put them in the food processor and it was great. Also, the second time I made it, I baked it at 325 degrees since it is so moist and needs time to cook from the inside out. Thanks for a workable recipe!

OH MY!!!!! I think I've died and gone to HEAVEN!!!! This is the absolute best bread I have ever tasted! I kid you not when I say it was gone in less than an hour. Now I'm making four batches for Christmas!! Thank you sooooo much!

Very good. I omited the raisins, and pureed the mango. It reminds me a little of carrot bread with the coconut as texture.

I have never used mango's before but this recipe turned out great tasting. It didn't rise very much but the taste was awesome. I took it to work and everyone loved it, even the people who said "I really don't like mango's" I made them try it and they said wow it tastes great!

I tried this in my bread machine which was unsuccessful. I had to place the pan in the oven to finish baking. Even with this minor delay, it turned out great. Even my husband who doesn't like mangoes asked for seconds. I substituted chopped dates for raisins and doubled the coconut while omitting the nuts. Definitely give it a try.

This is one of the best sweet breads I have ever had. It is a great way of using mangoes. This was the first time I have made it and the only change I would make is to use less sugar. I did not have butter and used margarine for recipe and pam to grease the pan.

The mangos in Hawaii are falling from the trees in abundance. I discovered this recipe and have baked about 25 loaves of this bread/cake, everyone loves it, what a great find. Thankyou
