Most Mango Bread recipes on the internet were similar to the cake recipes. This one uses yeast and sounded more like bread.
Original recipe from Mayuris-Jikoni.

Original recipe from Mayuris-Jikoni.
Recipe:
- Maida (APF)+ whole wheat flour- 1 1/4 cup
- Desiccated coconut- 1/4 cup
- Mango puree- 1/2 cup
- Sugar- 1+ 1.5 tsp
- Salt- 1/4 tsp
- Chilled butter- 1 tbsp
- Yeast- 1 tsp
- Chopped nuts (I used melon seeds)- 1/8 cup
- Water- 1.5 tbsp (not required if you are using instant active yeast)
Method:
- For yeast activation, warm 1.5 tbsp of water, add 1 tsp sugar, a pinch of salt, 1tsp yeast, and let it sit for 15-20 mins.
If using instant active yeast powder, warm the mango puree to activate the yeast. - Add both the flour to a bowl along with 1.5 tsp sugar and 1/4 tsp salt. Mix once.
- Add the yeast (solution or powder), mango puree, and start making a sticky dough.
- Dust a little more flour if required (I added around 1/8 cup of extra flour).
- Add chilled butter 1/2 tbsp at a time and knead the dough. It'll be smooth and fluffy.
- Apply a layer of butter on the top and let it proof for 1 1/ to 2 hours.
- The dough will double in size. Punch it down and knead it again. Apply some ghee or oil to your palms so that it won't stick. Knead for 2-5 mins max. Let it be stretchy and airy.
- Grease and dust the bread tin. Place the dough and cover it with a damp cloth for 40 minutes.
- After 30mins, preheat the oven at 180 degrees C for 10 mins.
- The dough would have doubled again by now. Brush the top with milk. (You can brush it with butter or ghee). Mine dried up because of using only milk.
- Bake for 15-20 mins. It'll be done in around 18 mins so keep an eye on it.
- Cool it and cut into slices. Serve.
Excellent. Will try this one.
