  • Take the fruit out of the freezer 10 minutes before blending so it softens slightly.
  • Blend the mango, banana, milk powder and Greek yogurt until completely smooth. Stop and scrape the sides down with a spatula whenever the blender stalls.

Notes

  • Do not add liquid unless the blender truly will not move. Scrape the sides first. Every extra bit of liquid becomes an ice crystal once it refreezes.
  • Ripeness is everything. The mango should yield slightly when pressed and smell sweet near the stem.
  • If the ice cream has been in the freezer for more than an hour, let it sit on the counter for 10 to 15 minutes before scooping.
  • No yogurt on hand? It still works, with a lighter texture closer to sorbet.
