There are few things more perfect than a perfectly ripe Mango in the culinary world. I adore Mango and I am always looking to use them in new and exciting ways. I must say I am also content to just eat them all by themselves which is my favorite way. That is why today I bring you mango waffles.
These waffles were slightly adapted from the Blueberry waffles from Liv Life. I am tempted to play around a little more and add some toasted coconut as well. These make a great base recipe if by some chance you *gasp* don’t like Mango. They were light and fluffy really wonderful. My tiny taste testers were both really pleased with these mangso that is good enough for me. 🙂

Just wanted to say thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe. I woke up craving waffles and remembered I had some ripe mangoes and bananas. It seemed odd to combine them but after a brief internet search, I decided to try your recipe. I did add 1/2 a ripe banana to the batter, which fortunately didn’t overwhelm the mango.
Thanks again!
Hi Susan!
thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed them so much. The banana must have been a very nice addition. I will try that for the lovies next time. 🙂
I just made these mango waffles in an effort to use up my many mangos from the tree in our backyard. I was also trying to make somewhat healthy waffles to freeze and have quick and easy breakfast. …SUCCESS!! They are so yummy. I made the mistake of putting in too much mango because I didnt read the directions carefully, so next time will probably be even better. But, even with too much mango they are still good. Thanks so much!
Hi Kim!
Too much mango….is there such a thing? 🙂 How lucky to have a mango tree in your yard! These freeze wonderfully and are reasonably healthy. So glad you enjoyed them. Thank you so much for your response.
Take care
