 | | | If you are looking to make brunch with just a hint of some Indian flavors then try this recipe! I made this for my Mom on Mother's Day and she absolutely loved it considering she does not have a sweet tooth. The cloves in the mango compote added a bit of a spicy blend to the compote which really complemented the chocolate and coconut flavors of the pancake. This could be a great option to try out with Father's Day just around the corner! Here is the recipe:
Mango Compote: Ingredients: - 6 medium sized mangoes chopped in small pieces
- 1 cup water
- 6 tablespoons sugar
- lime juice (squeezed from 1 lime)
- 3 cinnamon sticks
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder

Directions: - Combine all ingredients together in pot and bring to boil.
- Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 15 minutes stirring occasionally until the fruit is softened and the liquid is a bit thick.
