Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large or 3 medium ripe mangoes, peeled and chopped
- 1 can (13.5 oz / 400 ml) full-fat coconut milk
- 1/3 cup (40 grams) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (optional)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened desiccated coconut (optional)
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Peel and chop mangoes into chunks (about 2 cups / 300 grams). Puree in a blender or with an immersion blender until smooth. Optional: strain through a fine sieve for extra smoothness. Set aside.
- Chill the can of coconut milk overnight. Scoop out about 1 cup (240 ml) of the thick cream from the top and place it in a chilled bowl.
- Whip the coconut cream with an electric mixer or by hand for 2–3 minutes until fluffy and light.
- Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, lime juice, and a pinch of salt to the whipped coconut cream. Beat gently until combined and sugar dissolves.
- Gently fold the mango puree into the whipped coconut mixture using a spatula. Add desiccated coconut if using.
- Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe loaf pan or container and smooth the top.
- Cover with plastic wrap or an airtight lid and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to soften slightly.
Notes
Chill the coconut milk can overnight to separate the cream for whipping. Avoid over-blending mangoes to prevent watery texture. Fold mango puree gently to keep airiness. Use ripe mangoes for best flavor. Store leftovers tightly covered in freezer up to 1 week. Let soften 5–10 minutes before serving.
