Instructions

Preparation

  1. 1Combine the frozen mango, chilled coconut milk cream, fresh lime juice, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract in a high-speed blender or food processor.
  2. 2Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This may take a few minutes, ensure there are no ice chunks.
  3. 3Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice if desired. For a softer consistency, serve immediately.
  4. 4For a firmer, more traditional frozen yogurt consistency, transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 30-60 minutes.
  5. 5If frozen for longer, allow it to soften at room temperature for a few minutes before serving, or blend again briefly to restore creaminess.

Tips

  • For the best texture, use only the thick cream from a can of full-fat coconut milk that has been chilled overnight.
  • Garnish with fresh mango cubes, toasted coconut flakes, or a sprig of mint for an elevated presentation.
