Is it possible to fall in love with a bread? I think I have - this is a rich and tender, wickedly moist loaf that is filled with exotic flavour - with mesquite flour, molasses, giner, mangoes and a touch of amarula, what could be bad? Read more If you can't source the mesquite, go ahead and use whole wheat flour or an instant coffee and cinnamon blend (about 1/2 tbsp of each). The mango needs to be eating-over-the-sink ripe for this... no green ones! See less
