Instructions
We’re not including measurements here, because mangos come in different sizes, and you can use however many you have. You can freeze any leftovers in an airtight container and use it up within two weeks.
First, have an adult cut the mango into chunks. Place the chunks on a baking dish (or any dish with enough flat surface) and freeze them for about four hours.
Have an adult put the frozen mango chunks into a blender or food processor and pulse a few times. When the pieces are smaller, scrape down the sides with a spatula, and add a little bit of sweetener, a little liquid (water, milk or plant milk) and a squeeze of lime juice. Blend again, for at least one minute. If it’s not blending well, add more liquid to make it easier.
Once it’s smooth, taste-test the mixture to see if you want a little more sweetener or lime – adding only a little at a time. If you add anything, blend again to mix it up. Let stand for one minute and then scoop into your bowls to enjoy.
If you have more, place it into an airtight container and freeze. Let any frozen sorbet come to room temperature for about 10 minutes before eating, or it will be too hard to scoop.
