Healthy, delicious, eggless and simple to prepare, this season munch on these Sugar free , dairy free Mango Muffins.
If you are a Mango addict just like me, then you definitely need to prepare these muffins. Now I have made these muffins with All purpose flour (Maida) in the past and they tasted awesome. However , this time, I wanted to make this with WWF and yes it does taste good. Whole wheat flour in muffins/cakes/cupcakes is like an acquired taste so if you dislike the taste then you can mix half of WWF with APF.
While Cupcakes has to be sweet, muffins needn’t so I planned to prepare Muffins which will completely rely on the sweetness of Honey and Mangoes. I wanted to skip the sugar and yes, these tasted delicious without sugar. Cardamom and nuts bring in additional taste to these muffins, so it’s recommended to add them. If you do not have honey, you can also use Dates Syrup or Maple syrup instead. Again, it’s best to prepare Dates syrup at home, store brought ones will be loaded with sugar
You can check the below collection of Mango desserts if you are as crazy about mangoes like me 🙂 . I have good collection of cheesecake, cookies, cupcakes, cakes, pudding, drinks etc.
Notes
*Instead of whole wheat flour, all purpose flour(APF) / Maida can also be used OR you can use 1/2 cup wheat flour and 1/2 cup APF
**Instead of Honey, Maple syrup/Dates Syrup/Agave can also be used
***Sweetness of the muffins will also depend on the sweetness of Mango puree, so use good quality mangoes like Alphonso or similar
***Batter would be thick, if it’s too thick, only then just add additional 1-2 tbsp. Mango puree
