• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put oil, 1 cup sugar, eggs, salt, and vanilla in the bowl of electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, and mix on medium-low speed until combined.

MANGO-PECAN BREAD

Steps:

• Tip: because mangos are so fibrous, the best way to mash them is to pulse in a food processor; aim for a texture that resembles cottage cheese.

• Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a big bowl.
• Add in the pecans and raisins; toss well; then make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients.
• Combine the mashed mango, eggs, oil, and vanilla in a bowl; pour into the well in the dry ingredients and mix only enough to combine; the batter should be lumpy.
• Scoop the batter into the prepared pan; spreading to the corners; bake in the lower third of the oven for 50-55 minutes or until the bread begins to pull from the sides of the pan and cake tester comes out clean.
• Cool bread in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then loosen around the edge with a small thin-blade spatula and turn out.
