Instructions
- Prep the mangoes: If using fresh mangoes, peel and chop them into chunks. Place in a freezer-safe container and freeze for 2–3 hours until solid. (Or use pre-frozen mango chunks to skip this step.)
- Blend everything: In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the frozen mango, coconut milk, vanilla, maple syrup (if using), salt, and lime juice. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Serve soft-serve style: Enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture.
- Freeze for a firmer scoop: Transfer the blended mixture to a loaf pan or airtight container. Smooth the top, cover, and freeze for 2–4 hours until scoopable.
- Scoop and enjoy: Let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping if too firm. Serve with extra mango chunks, coconut flakes, or fresh mint.
Healthy Tips
- Use frozen banana instead of sweetener for added creaminess and natural sweetness.
