Print Recipe

A quick and easy vegan dessert made with frozen mango chunks and full-fat coconut milk, blended into a creamy, dairy-free nice cream that’s perfect for summer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (450g) frozen mango chunks
  • 1 cup (240ml) full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: chopped toasted coconut, chopped nuts, fresh mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Use about 3 cups (450g) of frozen mango chunks straight from the freezer. If the mango is very hard, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly for easier blending.
  2. In your blender or food processor, combine 1 cup (240ml) of full-fat coconut milk, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the frozen mango chunks to the blender with the coconut milk mixture. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy—this usually takes 1-2 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula if needed to ensure even blending.
  4. Check consistency: The mixture should be thick and creamy, like soft-serve ice cream. If it’s too thick, add a splash of coconut milk and blend again; if too thin, add a few more frozen mango chunks.
  5. For a scoopable texture, transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1-2 hours. Stir every 30 minutes to prevent ice crystals from forming. If you prefer soft-serve style, enjoy immediately.
  6. Scoop into bowls or cones and garnish with toasted coconut or fresh mint if desired. Enjoy right away for the best creamy texture.

Notes

Use frozen mango straight from the freezer for best texture. Full-fat canned coconut milk provides the creamiest results. Blend in pulses if needed and scrape down sides to avoid uneven texture. For scoopable nice cream, freeze for 1-2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. Optional toppings include toasted coconut, nuts, or fresh mint. Substitute coconut milk with almond or oat milk for a lower-fat version but expect less creaminess.
