Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 heaping cups frozen mango (approximately two 10-oz bags)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare mango: Place the frozen mango chunks in a food processor and pulse until the mango breaks down into small shreds. Periodically scrape down the sides to ensure even processing.
- Add sweetener and lime juice: Add the maple syrup and fresh lime juice to the food processor. Continue mixing until the processor runs smoothly and only a few small mango pieces remain, scraping the sides as needed to incorporate all ingredients.
- Achieve creamy texture: Keep the processor running for at least one more minute to create the creamiest possible sorbet consistency.
- Serve or freeze: Enjoy the sorbet immediately for a soft-serve texture. For a firmer consistency, transfer to a sealed container and freeze for 2-3 hours. Before serving after longer freezing, thaw for 10-15 minutes for easy scooping. Store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
- This sorbet requires no churning or ice cream maker, just a food processor.
- For best texture, use mango that is fully frozen but not rock solid.
- Adjust maple syrup quantity to your preferred sweetness.
- Lime juice adds brightness and balances the sweetness.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn.
- Allow time for thawing if frozen for longer than a few hours for scoopable sorbet.
