Preheat and prepare pan. Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 8x4” loaf pan with cooking spray, or line with parchment paper and then spray with cooking spray.
Combine dry ingredients. In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
Combine wet ingredients. In a second mixing bowl, whisk together eggs,milk, sour cream oil and vanilla.
Combine wet and dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix together with a spatula or wooden spoon just until just combined. Fold in chopped mangos and coconut (if using). Do not overmix.
Bake. Spoon batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake in a preheated 350°F (177°C) oven for 60-70 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle of bread comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs clinging to it (no wet batter) and top springs back to the touch when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and cool completely in the pan on a wire cooling rack.
How should I store this mango bread?
Let the bread cool completely then wrap in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to keep it super moist. I store my mango bread at room temperature for a few days. Any longer then I recommend freezing.
Can I freeze this bread?
Yes, this mango bread freezes great and will stay delicious once thawed! Let the bread cool completely, and then wrap in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. I like to wrap in a few layers and then also place in a large freezer plastic bag. or airtight container. The bread will freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, unwrap and defrost at room temperature before serving.

Yes you can bake this mango bread recipe in a 9x5 loaf pan, but reduce the baking time to 50-60 minutes if using a larger bread pan.
