Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 large egg
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons butter (1/2 stick) -- melted and cooled
1 1/2 cups diced ripe mango
2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
-----TOPPING-----
1/3 cup chopped unsalted macadamia nuts
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter -- softened
PREHEAT OVEN TO 400F.
For topping: Combine all ingredients except butter in a small bowl; mash in
butter with a fork or rub in with your fingertips; chill until needed.
Grease a 12-cup muffin tin; be sure to lightly grease area around the muffin
wells so they won't stick as they rise. In a large bowl, whisk together
egg, sour cream, milk, vanilla and melted butter; fold in mango. In another
large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and
salt. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add mango
mixture. Fold together just to moisten and evenly blend; the batter will be
lumpy.
Using a large spoon, quickly fill muffin wells with batter to the tops.
Crumble topping over and bake 25 - 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted
into center emerges with just a few crumbs clinging to it. Cool in pan 5 -
10 minutes; loosen muffins and tilt each on its side to cool further. Serve
warm or at room temperature.
