After reading other reviews, I see it wasn't just me who was a little bewildered by the outcome of this recipe. Mine took the full 27 minutes to bake even in a convection oven. They rose during baking & fell as soon as they came out. The flavor is very good however the texture is not exactly muffin-like. I'll eat them; I love mango, however I doubt I will try this particluar recipe again. Thanks for posting though!
