13 Apr Best Homemade Creamy Mango Ice Cream with KitchenAid maker
Because we have the last days of Mango season, I wanted to make ice cream to use my ripe mangoes on the back of my refrigerator. So, if you are a mango lover, you will like this homemade mango ice cream recipe.
I only use two mangoes for this delicious mango ice cream, so I don’t think you need a lot of mangoes to execute the mango pulp for this recipe. I use an extra one to decorate for the picture, but in reality, we don’t use it to eat the rest of it.
I love to eat it with another ice cream like the Lucuma ice cream (check the recipe here) or another fruit ice cream in a cone.
Ingredients:
- whole milk
- sugar
- vanilla extract
- salt
- egg yolks
- heavy cream
- mango
Heat the milk, sugar, vanilla and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until it warms and the sugar is dissolved. Don’t let the mixture simmer.
Peel the mango and cut it into big pieces in a blender or food processor; blend the mango pieces with the cream. Pour the mango mixture into a large bowl and beat the egg yolks. Mix it well with a hand mixer to break the yolks. Mix a third of the milk mixture well to prevent the yolks from cooking. Pour the rest of the milk mixture and mix it well.
Pour everything back into the saucepan and cook it over medium heat until the mixture has thickened for 10-15 minutes. Keep moving the mixture with a wooden spoon the whole time; otherwise, it will burn on the bottom. Pour it into a clean bowl with plastic wrap over it so it will not develop a crust. Let it cool down in the refrigerator for 4 hours. Meanwhile, freeze the ice cream machine to have it in excellent condition for churning.
After four hours, put the ice cream attachment and whisk attachment into the stand mixer as instructed, pour the creamy ice cream mixture into it, and mix it for 20 minutes. This will prevent to formation of ice crystals. Pour the final mixture into a container to put in the freezer-safe container. Cover it with parchment paper and freeze for at least 6 hours before eating. Best ways to serve it with fresh mangoes cut into chunks and Whipped cream in a bowl or cone.

Yes, you can, but you must be aware that this amount of sugar is according to the use of ripe mangoes, so make sure you use other ripe and sweet fruits to replace them.

Yes and no. Yes, it will simplify things and make them more manageable, but you can do the same using an inverted Marie bathe. Using a large bowl with ice and cold water, put a medium mixing bowl inside with the ice cream mixture and beat it for 20 minutes by hand or with an electric hand mixer.
