What an unusual but successful combination ! I am putting this on muesli with plain yoghurt for breakfast and enjoying it immensely so thanks for posting.

If you love mangoes and pears, you'll love this wonderfully flavoursome alternative to applesauce. I was able to buy pears but made this with canned mangoes as it's not quite mango season yet. A wonderfully delicious recipe which I really look forward to making again and sharing with friends and family when mangoes are plentiful and delicious. I followed Sydney Mike's tip and used less cornstarch and Baby Kato's suggestion of using pear nectar. Thanks for sharing this oh so-quick to make and wonderfully delicious recipe, Enjolinfam.

Made this with fresh fruit but took a hint from Baby Kato & used pear nectar instead of the water! Also cut the cornstarch to 2 teaspoons! Served it over your recipe #239130 for a GREAT TASTING BREAKFAST! Thanks for a great recipe keeper!

This is an absolutely wonderful syrup. I enjoyed it very much Enjolinfam and will be making it often. It is quick and easy to make, tastes great, fresh and fruity. I used pear nectar and frozen mango pieces and didn't use any cornstarch, I liked the texture as it was. This was served with chef #671897 finnish style pancakes for a great lunch. Thanks so much for sharing .
