What to Make with Frozen Mango Chunks
If you’re wondering what to make with frozen mango, this easy mango sorbet is the answer! With just one ingredient and a Vitamix or food processor, you can turn frozen mango into a naturally sweet sorbet with an irresistibly creamy texture. We’re talking ice cream texture, without any added fat!
Here is Why This Frozen Mango Dessert Works
One ingredient, no fuss: No need to complicate things; just frozen mangoes and you’re good to go!
Naturally sweet: Skip the added sugar; ripe mangoes bring all the sweetness you need.
Creamy texture: Unlike most frozen fruits, mangoes blend into a smooth, creamy consistency.
Quick & easy: Ready in minutes with minimal effort, perfect when you want dessert fast without extra ingredients!
The Ingredients
For this recipe, you only need frozen diced mango. You can add a touch of tartness with a splash of lime juice, if preferred. But all you really need is mangos, not a ton of ingredients.
We added a pop of color by garnishing the sorbet with mint leaves.
Variations
Tropical Coconut Sorbet: Blend in ¼ cup of canned coconut milk and top with toasted coconut flakes.
Spicy Mango Ice Cream: Add 1 teaspoon of Tajin seasoning to the blender and garnish with extra Tajin.
Mango Lime Ginger Sorbet: Mix in the zest and juice of one lime and ½ teaspoon of grated fresh ginger.
Mixed Berry Sorbet: Blend in ½ cup of frozen mixed berries. The berries will give the sorbet a slightly icy texture.
Tips for Success
- The mango needs to be frozen solid to get that ice cream or sorbet texture.
- If the mixture isn’t coming together, stop the food processor or Vitamix blender and scrape down the sides.
- If you have leftovers, freeze it in ice cube trays and re-blend before serving to regain that creamy consistency.
- If using fresh mango, dice it up and spread the pieces on a sheet pan. Freeze them until solid before blending.
Storing Leftovers
To store any leftover sorbet, transfer it to ice cube trays and freeze in chunks. For best results, place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the sorbet to prevent ice crystals from forming. Once frozen, transfer to freezer bags.
The sorbet will keep in the freezer for up to three months.

One Ingredient Mango Sorbet
Ingredients
- 6 cups frozen diced mango (see notes if using fresh mango)
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (optional)
- Mint sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Place the frozen, diced mango (and lime juice, if using) in the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth and creamy. At first, the mango chunks may not seem like they’re coming together, but keep processing. Stop a few times to scrape down the sides, and after a few minutes, the mango will soften and blend into a creamy texture. Trust the process!
- Alternatively, use a high-powered blender like a Vitamix. You’ll need to stop more often to scrape down the sides and push the fruit down toward the blades.
- Divide into serving dishes, garnish with fresh mint sprigs and serve immediately.
Notes
- If you are using fresh mangos, you will need to freeze them first, see below for instructions.
- If you prefer a slightly tart sorbet, include the lime juice. It’s optional, so feel free to skip it if you want the pure, sweet mango flavor to shine through.
- If you use a blender, you will get better results with a high powered blender such as a Vitamix or Blendtec.
- If you have leftover sorbet, freeze it in ice cube trays. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, re-blend the cubes to get a smooth, creamy texture.
To freeze fresh mangoes:
- Peel the mangos, slice the flesh, and dice into cubes.
- Spread the cubes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze until solid.
