It took a few weeks for all of my blog supplies to arrive in Hawaii, but my set-up is finally here – and I couldn’t be more excited to share my first recipe from my new home. One of my favorite things about living in Hawaii is the abundance of tropical fruit, which I simply can’t get enough of. And although I’ve been gobbling up fresh pineapples, papaya and mango, these tropical fruits are perfect for baking, too.
Take this Mango Banana Bread recipe, for example. I originally intended to through together a simple banana bread loaf to use up some overripe bananas. I very accidentally had overlooked a mango that was buried in my fruit bowl, so I decided to throw in some cubed pieces on a whim. You know I love anything with a tropical twist.
I’ll admit that I’m not a master baker. Sometimes it takes me a few attempts to perfect a new dessert recipe. But this one was easy breezy, and my new favorite recipe in one fell swoop.
It’s safe to say that my family is very, very happy that I’m home.
