Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen mango
- ¼ cup sweetener (maple syrup or simple syrup)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- Pinch of kosher salt
- Mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Pulse mango: Place the frozen mango in the food processor and pulse until it is slightly chopped into smaller pieces to facilitate smooth blending.
- Add flavorings: Scrape down the sides of the food processor bowl to bring mango pieces close to the blades. Add the sweetener (maple syrup or simple syrup), lime juice, and a pinch of kosher salt to enhance flavor.
- Blend to creamy consistency: Continue processing the mixture, scraping down the sides as needed, and keep the processor running for at least one minute to achieve a creamy and smooth sorbet texture.
- Serve or store: The sorbet can be enjoyed immediately for a soft-serve experience or placed in a sealed container and stored in the freezer for up to two weeks for a firmer texture.
- Prep for serving: If frozen for longer storage, remove the sorbet from the freezer about 10-15 minutes before serving to soften slightly for easy scooping.
Notes
- Maple syrup or simple syrup can be used interchangeably as a sweetener depending on preference.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less syrup to suit your taste.
- For best texture, use fully frozen mango chunks rather than thawed fruit.
- Mint garnish adds a fresh aroma and visual appeal.
- Store the sorbet in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn and preserve flavor.
