It is a whirlwhind week for us. We got back from Illinois last night and picked up our dear friend Helene (Tartelette) at the airport. She is teaching a food photography and food styling workshop in Salt Lake City today. I am so excited! Tomorrow we are going to the EVO Conference in Park City. It is a busy week, but a fun one. I don’t even have to unpack from our trip:) Last week, before our travel madness began, Josh woke up early and made me Whole Wheat Raspberry & Mango Pancakes for breakfast. It was a nice and tasty surprise.
I haven’t had that many weird cravings during my pregnancy, but I have been enjoying pancakes on a regular basis. They always taste good to me. Josh knows whole wheat pancakes are my favorite, so he whipped up a basic whole wheat buttermilk pancake base. He then added plump raspberries and juicy mango chunks to the pancake batter. Great move on his part. The fruit really made these pancakes special.
Josh walked into our bedroom with a plate of steaming hot pancakes and I immediately woke up with a smile. He served the pancakes with a little maple syrup and extra raspberries and mango chunks. I devoured the pancakes. Josh did a fantastic job. It was nice being pampered with a special breakfast in bed. I really have the best husband.
This week is going to be crazy busy for us, but as soon as life calms down, I am requesting Whole Wheat Rapsberry & Mango Pancakes. I can’t wait to eat these again! They were exceptional!
If you are going to be at the EVO Conference, make sure you say hello! You can’t miss the baby bump:)

So you are friends with Helene huh? I swear I’m more star struck by food bloggers than any hollywood “A” lister! I just found out from my friends the Terry’s that they know you…I know someone, that knows someone famous…How lame am I that I think that is so COOL!
Yes, we know the Terry’s. They are great! And I am not famous:) It’s a small world!
I would never think to add mangoes to pancakes, but I’m LOVING this idea!
These are my kind of pancakes. Love them!
“This week is going to be crazy busy for us, but as soon as life calms down…”
Girl I just posted about my crazy life. And there’s part two to it, yet, too! I am going to be somewhere else, otherwise I would have gone to Evo! Seriously, I WILL meet you, one day! Food blogger camp 2012 maybe?! 🙂
We will meet someday, don’t you worry:)
pancakes in bed?? What could be better! I’ve never tried mangoes with pancakes, but now I’m intrigued! One of my most favorite fruits. Hope you guys have fun this week and I hope you’re feeling well!
what a cool combo! i always love berries in pancakes but have never thought to do mango. genius josh!
Such service……… I love it! This recipe looks wonderful and so healthy (perfect for growing babies!) Love the champagne mangoes that are so cheap right now and for me raspberries always sound good! Thanks, Chris
What a fun combination of fruit for these pancakes! 🙂 So perfect for summer!
Really wish I hadn’t used up my mango in a crumble last night. Oh well excuse to buy more!
You have such a sweet husband! These look delicious. Have fun at the conference this week!
Love the combo of mango and raspberries but have never thought about mango in pancakes! Hey, why not? Right? Ohhhhh, Park City, I am green right now. Have fun!
Now those are my kind of pancakes! Delicious Maria!
What a sweet hubby! And talented one too… those are gorgeous!
I craved tomatoes and had to have lemon with everything. So wierd what happens to your body when you have a little loved one growing inside. Yummy pancakes!
Great stack of pancakes 🙂
Now that’s the way to start the day off right. Kudos to Josh!
what a fun way to wake up in the morning! i love the pops of color from the raspberries + mango.
and whole wheat buttermilk pancakes are my favorite!
These look good! I love pancakes!
Mangos are soooo good! I had mango everyday in Hawaii on my honeymoon, the BEST mango ever!
Aw, how sweet of him! Have fun at the EVO conference this week.
What a healthy way to start a day! Love the wholesome idea of this lovely breakfast.
I haven’t had good pancakes in awhile. This post is inspiring me!
Your pancakes are always my favorite Maria, this one is gorgeous!
I had a mickey mouse shaped pancake over the weekend that renewed my interest in pancakes ; ) I’ll try these, perhaps in a mickey mouse shape even, hehe.
Those look delicious! I loooooove whole wheat pancakes too 😀 I’m going to have to try these because I’ve had a hard time finding the perfect recipe.
Looks delicious! I’ve only had bananas in pancakes before. Looks like I need to branch out.
I’ve only ever tried blueberries – this looks delicious
I am really interested in this combo!! I bought a bunch of Mangos at the farmers market this weekend because they were 3 for $1! …Can’t wait to give this a try!
Now I wish I wouldn’t have frozen all those mangos I had going bad! Might just have to defrost them sooner than I thought and hope that doesn’t ruin this delicious recipe. Have a wonderful time at EVO. 🙂
This looks seriously yummy!
Aww could he be any sweeter? I doubt it. These sound so delicious!
Yum, what a great combination – two of my favorite fruits! Maybe I can talk my hubs into making these for me this weekend 🙂
These look yummy! I can’t wait to see you this week at EVO!
I’ve been all about pancakes lately, and these look amazing! I always use whole wheat pastry flour, so it’s good to know that regular whole wheat flour works as well. Raspberries and mango go so well together, so these will definitely be made :).
These look incredible! I love fruit in pancakes and this combination sounds perfect!
These look great! Interestingly enough I had half a mango in the fridge and wasn’t sure what to do with it. Now I think I have the answer 😉
Mmm, what perfect pancakes – mango and raspberries sound so lovely together.
I’m pretty sure I’ll be having pancakes in the morning now after reading this.
Awww what a fabulous husband! I have a mango obsession and these look SO good to me… And they’re super pretty, too 🙂
Yaaay Josh! Major brownie points for him. I love this mango-raspberry combo. Sounds delicious! Pancakes always sound good to me, too. Don’t forget the baking powder in your pancakes! I did that last week and they turned out rubbery and weird.
How sweet – breakfast in bed AND with delicious pancakes! He is a definite keeper, and you definitely deserve to be pampered during your pregnancy.
Funny seeing this post this morning because I had a craving for pancakes when I woke up. Seriously have to do something about that now.
Pancakes in bed? And it wasn’t even your birthday? I say this guy is a KEEPER!
Wow what a keeper! I want pancakes in bed…he’s making other guys look bad! And these look simply delicious! I LOVE mango!!! YUM!!! What do you think of my walnut-coconut crusted tilapia with pineapple salsa?

I like raspberry…and mango too…what a great combination for an early breakfast. Thanks for sharing.
These look great…love the raspberry and mango combination! Have a good trip to the conference 🙂
I am loving raspberries now that they’ve come into season. Raspberries & mango sound like a fabulous combo!!
Raspberry and mango sounds like a great combination – and in pancakes, can’t go wrong 🙂
Have fun this weekend – sounds like lots going on for you!
My two favorite fruits in one pancake, love it!
These look delicious! I never though to pit mangoes in pancakes!
I just made these this morning (but substituted strawberries because we didn’t have raspberries). They were wonderful! My husband was so excited to see the mangos in the pancakes! Thanks for the recipe.
You are very welcome!
I swear, you guys make the best pancakes! You do have such a sweet husband- hope to meet him one of these days!
Mmmm….mangos are my favorite fruit!
You are so fortunate to have a husband who cooks, and cooks healthy meals for you at that! Hope you are feeling well.
Thank you so much for this recipe! I made them today and they were fantastic!
Glad you liked the pancakes!
I’ve searched for eggless pancake recipes for ages but all of them were a mess. Then I’ve found this: whole wheat and just one egg for several pancakes!
I used rice milk and coconut butter,it turned out to be the best pancakes I’ve ever eaten.
Thank you so much!
