Indulge in a refreshing, healthy dessert with our exotic spiced mango sorbet. Packed with antioxidants and nutrients. Perfectly vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free!
Ingredients
- • ripe mangoes: 3, peeled and diced
- • fresh basil leaves: 1/4 cup, chopped
- • fresh ginger: 1 teaspoon, grated
- • ground cardamom: 1/2 teaspoon
- • fresh lime juice: 2 tablespoons
- • unsweetened coconut milk: 1/2 cup
- • hemp seeds: 2 tablespoons
- • maple syrup: 1 tablespoon (optional, for added sweetness)
Instructions
- 1 Begin by placing the diced mangoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze them for at least 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.
- 2 Once the mangoes are frozen, transfer them to a high-speed blender. Add the chopped basil leaves, grated ginger, ground cardamom, lime juice, and coconut milk.
- 3 Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy. If desired, add the maple syrup for extra sweetness, and blend again.
- 4 Stir in the hemp seeds by hand to add texture and a boost of nutrients. Serve the sorbet immediately for a soft-serve consistency, or freeze for an additional hour for a firmer texture.
Serving Suggestions
- • This Exotic Spiced Mango Sorbet pairs beautifully with a handful of fresh berries or a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes for added texture and flavor. Serve it in chilled bowls for a refreshing treat on a hot day. For a beverage pairing, consider a light herbal tea like chamomile or a refreshing glass of cucumber-infused water to complement the sorbet's tropical notes.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover sorbet in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week. To maintain its creamy texture, allow the sorbet to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving again. For best results, stir the sorbet occasionally while it's freezing to prevent ice crystals from forming.
