- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- For the Toasted Oats:

- 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions
- 1. Prepare the Mango Coconut Ice Cream
- a. In a blender, combine diced mango, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until completely smooth. b. Pour mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 4 hours, stirring every hour for a creamier texture. Alternatively, use an ice cream maker following manufacturers directions.
- 2. Toast the Oats
- a. In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add coconut oil. b. Add rolled oats and shredded coconut. Toast, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant (about 4–5 minutes). c. Drizzle with maple syrup, sprinkle with cinnamon and salt, and cook for 1–2 more minutes until crisp. Let cool completely.
- 3. Assemble the Bowls
- a. Scoop the frozen mango coconut mixture into bowls. b. Top generously with toasted oats, fresh mango slices, and mint leaves if using. Serve immediately.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
For extra creaminess, try freezing your mango chunks ahead of time before blending. If you are not using an ice cream maker, the key to a better texture is to stir the mixture every hour during the freezing process to break up ice crystals. Ensure your coconut milk is full-fat to achieve the luscious mouthfeel this dessert is known for.
