One Ingredient Mango (or Banana) Ice Cream

Rebecca Lindamood
You'll have to taste it to believe it, but this super-creamy, luscious ice cream is made from just one ingredient! Whether you choose mango or banana or another fruit entirely, you'll be blown away by how decadent frozen fruit can taste when blitzed in a food processor or a juicer with a blank plate. Summer heat doesn't stand a chance when you have this recipe under your belt!

Ingredients
  

For Mango 'Ice Cream':

  • Strips or small chunks of frozen mango
  • The equivalent of 1 to 1 1/2 mangos yields one very generous or two medium servings.

For Banana 'Ice Cream' (Taste like vanilla ice cream):

  • Strips or small chunks of frozen banana
  • 1 1/2 bananas are about equal to one very generous or two smaller servings

Instructions
 

For Either Flavour of 'Ice Cream' Using a Juicer:

  • Put the blank plate on your juicer (the one that allows you to make 'whole juice' vs. strained juice.) Add the chunks of frozen fruit to the hopper and press down gently until all the fruit has been extruded.
  • Either eat immediately for soft-serve texture, or pack gently into a freezerware container, cover and put in the freezer until solid. This is best served the day it is made, but can be stored longer and softened slightly at room temperature before serving later.

For Either Flavour of 'Ice Cream' Using a Food Processor:

  • Put the chunks of frozen fruit into a food processor work bowl that has been fitted with a metal blade. Put the lid in place and process until it is a soft-serve consistency. You may find you need to stop the food processor to scrape down the sides occasionally.
  • Serve immediately like soft-serve, or pack into freezerware containers, cover and put into the freezer until solid. This is best served the day it is made, but can be stored longer and softened slightly at room temperature before serving later.
