Ingredients
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
- Chop the mango: Place the frozen mango in the food processor and pulse until the mango pieces are slightly chopped, creating a rough texture to start the sorbet base.
- Add flavorings: Scrape down the sides of the food processor bowl to ensure even mixing. Add the sweetener of your choice, lime juice, and a pinch of kosher salt into the bowl with the mango.
- Process to creamy texture: Continue processing the mixture, scraping down the sides as necessary to incorporate all ingredients evenly. Leave the food processor running for at least one minute until the sorbet achieves a smooth, creamy consistency similar to soft serve.
- Serve or store: Enjoy the sorbet immediately for a soft-serve texture, or transfer it to a sealed container and freeze for up to two weeks for a firmer texture.
- Thaw before serving: If frozen for storage, remove the sorbet from the freezer about 10–15 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.
- Garnish and enjoy: Serve with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing touch.
Notes
- You can use maple syrup or simple syrup according to your sweetness preference.
- If you prefer a firmer sorbet texture, freeze for a longer time after processing.
- For a citrus twist, fresh lime juice enhances the mango flavor.
- The pinch of kosher salt balances the sweetness and enhances flavor.
- Make sure to pulse the frozen mango gently at first to avoid damaging the food processor blades.
