Let’s get started on this simple, no-sugar mango ice cream that you can make right in your kitchen.
Ingredients
- Frozen mango pieces – 2 medium-sized mangoes (cut into pieces and frozen for 2 hours)
- Curd – 1 cup
- Fox nut (Mankhana) – ½ cup
- Cashew nuts – 10
- Honey – 4 tbsp
Method
- Firstly, peel and cut 2 ripe mangoes into pieces and freeze them for at least 2 hours. Freezing the mango pieces helps give the ice cream a thick, creamy texture.
- Now in a blender, add the frozen mango pieces, ½ cup makhana, 10 cashews, and 1 cup of fresh curd. Makhana adds a nice crunch and a healthy twist, while cashews make the ice cream extra creamy.
- Instead of sugar, add 4 tablespoons of honey to naturally sweeten the ice cream. Honey not only enhances the sweetness but also adds a depth of flavor.
- Now blend all the ingredients until smooth and creamy. You can also taste the mixture at this point and add more honey if you prefer it sweeter.
- Pour the mixture into an airtight container. For extra texture, you can add a few more mango pieces on top and gently mix them in. Cover the container and freeze the mixture for at least 4-6 hours, or until it’s fully set.
- Once frozen, scoop out the ice cream and enjoy! This healthy mango ice cream is perfect for satisfying your dessert cravings without the guilt.
Tips
- Use ripe mangoes for the best sweetness and flavor. The riper the mangoes, the less honey you’ll need to add.
- Makhana (fox nuts) not only adds a crunchy texture but also boosts the nutritional value, making this ice cream a great source of protein and fiber.
- Adjust the sweetness according to your taste. If you prefer a sweeter ice cream, you can add an extra tablespoon of honey. Instead of honey you can use maple syrup, dates syrup.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours to get the right texture. If you’re in a hurry, freezing the mixture overnight is even better for a firmer consistency.
