Homemade Mango Ice Cream Recipe (No Ice Cream Maker!)

Made without an ice cream maker, all you need are mangoes, condensed milk and cream to make this homemade Mango Ice Cream recipe that is creamy and scoopable, just like the ice cream you buy in tubs at the shops. Except this is ice cream money can’t buy. Because shop bought will never be able to capture the flavour of real mango like when you make it from scratch at home!

Homemade Mango Ice Cream

You won’t believe it until you try it. This really is a creamy ice cream made without an ice cream machine.

Regular readers know one of my big gripes is pretty photos of food for so so recipes. And my other gripe is watching cooking shows where the host is serenely scooping a perfect ball of ice cream and popping it in a cone when in actual fact, it’s a frozen solid mass, and if you leave it out to soften, it just turns into a puddle of liquid. I’ve been caught out so many times!

Such is the case with any recipe made with just milk, cream or yoghurt + sugar/honey. If you take it out of the freezer after 5 hours 17 minutes and 43 seconds, there is the chance that it will have frozen to that perfect stage where it is firm enough yet still scoopable. If you miss that window of opportunity by a mere second (or heaven forbid, you don’t eat it all in one sitting), it will be a frozen solid block of ice. Leave it out to soften, and, just like ice, it goes from frozen to melted.

So this homemade Mango Ice Cream recipe is dedicated to all of you who, like me, have been disappointed by efforts to make a homemade ice cream in the past. That is, without an ice cream maker! ?

Homemade mango ice cream being scooped out of a tub with an ice cream scooper.

A traditional ice cream starts with a sweetened mixture of cream and eggs which is then poured into an ice cream machine which churns as the ice cream gradually freezes. The churning serves two purposes: it aerates the mixture to make it light and fluffy and it stops icicles from forming so the ice cream is creamy rather than icy.

And all of this is replaced with two simple ingredients: condensed milk and cream. The whipped cream aerates the mixture and the condensed milk is the ingredient that keeps the mixture creamy, like ice cream. I must profess I don’t know the science behind why this works, I just know it does!

Whip the cream, fold through the condensed milk, add a touch of vanilla, freeze it and voila! 12 hours later, you will have an ice cream that looks like it’s store bought. Go wild with the add ins! Chocolate chips, coffee, spices, rum and raisin!

For this version, I added MANGOES!

Preparation steps for homemade Mango Ice Cream.

FOR THE FOOD NERDS ?

The recipe base of condensed milk and whipped cream lends itself to flavour variations that can be stirred through (like choc chips) or infused into the cream (like spices). However, if you start adding liquid content into the mixture – like fruit purees – the addition of water based ingredients affects the creaminess of the ice cream.

Originally, I just plonked pureed mangoes into the mixture. It didn’t make the whole ice cream icy, it was still scoopable and creamy, but when I ate it, there was definitely teeny tiny bits of fine icy bits in the ice cream.

So to solve that problem, I reduced the mango puree by simmering it on the stove. The added bonus of this was that I could use more mango puree and thus get a more intense mango flavour in the puree, while avoiding those teeny tiny icicles in the ice cream.

Finally. After quite a number of batches, I was finally happy with my homemade Mango Ice Cream. Not that I was short of taste testers, even for the initial experimental versions!

And how does it compare to store bought tubs of ice cream?

Well, here’s the clincher: this mango ice cream is something you simply can’t buy at the shops. This has the real flavour of mango, not a single bit of artificial flavouring in sight. It’s really incredible. For mango lovers everything, this is your mango dream come true!

In terms of texture, this ice cream is creamier than ice cream made in an ice cream churner / store bought. You can see this in the photo above – you see how thick the drips are? If this was traditional ice cream, the drips would be thinner.

The ice cream really is scoopable, like real ice cream. Between about 12 – 18 hours of freezing, it only needs a couple of minutes out of the freezer to be easily scoopable, like what you see in the video. After about 24 hours, it freezes firmer but the key thing is that after 5 minutes or so on the counter, it softens to become scoopable without melting into liquid which is the problem with no churn ice cream recipes made without condensed milk.

I’d love to know what you think if you try it! – Nagi x

WATCH HOW TO MAKE IT

Homemade Mango Ice Cream recipe video! Two areas to note: The stiffness of the cream (it’s not softly whipped, it’s stiff peaks) and how thick the mango puree is when cooked down (see how when I drag the wooden spoon across the skillet, it leaves a clear path through the mango puree). Oh! And of course, notice how the ice cream is truly scoopable like real store bought tubs of ice cream!

{Video below} A magic way to make a creamy scoopable ice cream without an ice cream maker! It's truly creamy and scoopable like ice cream you buy in tubs. Store bought is simply no comparison because you just cannot buy a real mango flavoured ice cream at the shops. It just doesn't exist! Note: I wasn't able to make this with an extremely intense mango flavour because the more mango that is added, the less creamy it gets. So getting the best mango flavour into the ice cream is dependent on using juicy ripe mangoes with good mango flavour! See Note 1. Also see notes for how to make this with other flavours. 🙂

Ingredients

  • 2 large mangoes , ripe and juicy - to make 2 cups puree (Note 1)
  • 395 g / 14 oz sweetened condensed milk (1 can)
  • 2 cups thickened cream / heavy cream / whipping cream , cold
  • 1/8 tsp yellow liquid food colouring (optional) (Note 5)

Instructions

  • Dice the flesh of the mango (see video for how I do it). Puree using a blender, food processor or stick blender then measure out 2 cups of mango puree (about 2 1/4 cups of diced mango).
  • Pour puree into a non stick skillet over medium low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, for 8 - 10 minutes or until it reduces by half. The test is when you can drag a wooden spoon across the skillet and the path remains there for a second (see video). Or measure out the puree to ensure it's reduced to at least 1 cup - less is even better!
  • Cool puree.

Ice Cream

  • Combine cooled mango and condensed milk in a bowl. Add food colouring if using. Whisk until combined.
  • Beat cream with a hand held beater or stand mixer until stiff peaks form (see video).
  • Take a scoop of cream and put it in the mango mixture. Fold through until mostly combined - lumps is fine (this is just to lighten it up a bit).
  • Then pour the mango mixture into the cream. Fold through (see video) rather than mixing vigorously like you would cake batter, until lump free. This will take a few minutes.
  • Pour into a container (preferably with a lid). I recommend glass, if you can, or other non reactive container.
  • Place a piece of baking / parchment paper on the surface. Then place lid on or using cling wrap.
  • Freeze for 12+ hours.
  • Remove parchment paper. Stand for 5 minutes to soften slightly, then scoop and serve!
  • If frozen for 24 hours or longer, it will need a couple of extra minutes to soften to a scoop able consistency.

Recipe Notes:

1. I found that there is only so much mango that can be added into the mixture and maintaining the creaminess of the ice cream. So the mango flavour is not as super intense as I hoped to achieve.
So the key to this recipe to get a good mango flavour in the ice cream is using ripe juicy mangoes with a strong mango flavour. I have expert advice from Aussie Mangoes that the mangoes with the most intense mango flavour and vibrant colour are Kensington Prides, Honey Golds and Pearls. I made mine with Honey Golds which are my favourite. However, this can be made with any type of mango - as long as they are ripe and juicy! <-- KEY POINT!
Calypso mangoes are the most common ones sold in Australia supermarkets but I personally don't recommend them for this recipe - the mango flavour isn't as strong as other varieties.
2. Reducing the mango puree by half is key to a) intenser mango flavour in the ice cream 2) avoiding tiny fine bits of icicles (really tiny, barely there) in the ice cream. This is because using plain pureed mango that hasn't been reduced has a much higher water content and the water is what causes the icicles.
You can actually skip the step of reducing the mango puree. Just be aware that you will notice some fine bits of iciness in the ice cream. Doesn't bother me at all, it is still SUPER creamy!!
3. Between 12 to about 18 hours of freezing, the ice cream only needs a couple of minutes to soften before being easy to scoop and serve. After that, the ice cream becomes harder and will need around 5 minutes. The unique thing about this recipe is that the ice cream doesn't go from rock hard to melted liquid, it will soften so it's scoopable like traditional ice cream you buy in tubs from the shops!
4. OTHER FLAVOURS: You can skip the mango and just fold condensed milk into the whipped cream and add 2 tsp pure vanilla - this will make a creamy vanilla ice cream. Go wild with add ins like choc chips, nuts etc! To make a chocolate version, I use 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (or 1/3 cup Dutch processed cocoa powder), whisked into the condensed milk, the folded with the cream.
I have not tried other pureed fruits yet and I think it will require some experimenting to make it work. Mangoes works great because a) it is one of the most intense flavoured fruits (did you know that? 🙂 ) b) it purees smoothly and can be reduced without losing flavour. Whereas, for example, strawberries don't actually have a very intense flavour. Watermelon has an incredibly high water content and I don't think reducing would work well. Etc etc. So I can't provide a guide for how to make this recipe with other fruits.
5. This is optional, if you want a nice mango yellow colour. I didn't use it in the photos because the Honey Golds I used were such an intense colour but I did use it in the video.

    Hi there. I have been making a similar recipe for the last couple of years now but with Nutella. I will have to try it with mangos as my wife and daughter loves mango. Thanks for the great ideas as always.

    This looks amazing and soooo easy !
    Since mangoes are not in season right now in Toronto can I just use mango pulp from a can and reduce that ? Also what kind of heave cream do you use ? Anytime a recipe calls for heavy cream whenever I go to the grocery store I can never find it ! I find whipping cream , table cream , half and half but never heavy cream !

      Hi Taz! Thanks for the question, I didn’t realise that! It’s whipping cream 🙂 We call that heavy cream here in Australia, as opposed to pouring cream which is not whippable! I’ve added that to the ingredients. I haven’t tried this with pulp but it should definitely work! Might even work better if the flavour might be more intense 🙂 PS Hang on….it’s WINTER where you are?? Ice cream….????

    When I was a kid (a looong time ago), my sweet mom made us a still-frozen peach ice cream with condensed milk. I can’t help but wonder if this be how she made it. Have you used this method with other fruit? I’m still going to try the mangos though. Our local (NW Florida) produce market has TONS of mangoes right now!

      HI Jan! I would love to know how she made this with peach! I haven’t got my head around using other fruits for this because I made this recipe especially for mangoes. Mangoes have a much more intense flavour than peach and almost all other fruits. I’m keen to try other fruit versions so I will share if I figure out a good peach version!

    Glad you having fun and getting plenty of the white stuff.

    The mangoes that we have now are picked green; good for Thai salad with prawns.

    I can get mango purée but sweetned ?. I wonder if your recipe would work with whipping cream and evaporated milk. What do you think?

    Reply
    • Nagi says

      February 11, 2017 at 10:30 am

      Hi CK! Unfortunately not – the sugar in the condensed milk is key for avoiding icicles and the creaminess. I’ve tried evaporated milk versions in the past with no success. And you picked it right – I would be concerned about using sweetened mango puree making it too sweet BUT having said that, the mangoes we have here in Australia really are super sweet and I reduce it too! So maybe it will be fine! 1 cup of sweetened mango puree 🙂 I’d love to know if you try it!

    I’m wondering if you couldn’t use a different fruit like strawberries? Just follow the recipe and substitute the fruit.

      February 11, 2017 at 10:28 am

      Hi Nancy! I added notes in the recipe for this question, it’s a good one. I don’t recommend it because all fruits will affect it differently. I made this especially for mangoes and it took a few goes to figure out the right ratios, cooking it down etc so it didn’t affect the creaminess of the ice cream. Strawberries have a far less intense flavour than mangoes so a direct substitution would not work. When I am back in Sydney I will work on other fruit flavours because I was keen to figure out a strawberry version myself! I’m thinking of a combination of strawberry and jam 🙂

    And, as luck would have it, it’s mango season in the stores! I am SO going to try this out. I have yet to make an ice cream without icy splinters in it, so this could end up being my go-to. I also would like to add a thank you for giving us a recipe that doesn’t require an ice cream maker. Such are few and far between.

        Okay, so I couldn’t decide between Haas and Atulfo, so I went half of each. It wasn’t intense enough for me, so I doubled the amount of mango, added 3 tbsp of fresh lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and a teaspoon of modified corn starch in a slurry to stabilize the extra mango, AND IT WAS AWESOME!!! I also purĂ©ed some frozen raspberries and put a thick stripe through my second batch when it was half-frozen, and it turned out even more awesome! My guests wiped me out of both batches in ONE evening. And omigawd, the ideas this has started! Strawberry, blackberry, banana, rhubarb, kiwi … sooo many ideas!

          Woo hoo! I’m so glad you enjoyed it Shalryn!! I haven’t tried a Haas or Atulfo before, I tried researching but couldn’t find much information about them so I don’t know how intense the flavour is. I’m glad you were able to adjust the mangoey-ness to your taste. So I’m,pressed with the adjustments you made!!! I haven’t heard about the cornstarch stabilisation – is that to keep the ice cream creamy after doubling the mango puree? And WOW to the raspberries! That sounds stellar – and so pretty!

            Sorry, it’s an Alice, not a Haas. We call it a Haas because it tastes best when it’s Haas-green like the avocado and (okay, this will sound odd) we know and intensely dislike a certain Aiice, so we refuse to use her name. Yes. sometimes, both people in this household can be incredibly petty.

            Anyway, in answer to your question: the modified cornstarch is to keep the extra mango from making ice splinters. That way the ice cream stayed nice and creamy. I also tried cup-sized side batches of ice cream using regular cornstarch and flour; the regular cornstarch disintegrated and made the ice cream grainy, while the flour turned the ice cream sort of crumbly/powdery at low temps. Modified cornstarch is definitely the winner. I used one called Clear-Jel.

    Also if this is used to make vanilla, how much vanilla would you add?

      Hi Rebecca, what a great question, thanks! I recommend glass because I know it’s non reactive etc. I’ve seen other recipes recommending metal and I don’t understand why, that would not be my preference. I don’t like storing food in metal pans. I also updated the recipe notes for vanilla ice cream – I use 2 tsp of pure vanilla. It’s SO GOOD! (I also added the chocolate ice cream version too!)

Now, excuse me, I have to recover from this sugar coma. Oh and yes, the ice cream is really creamy and mango-y and deliciously sweet. I wonder who is going to police me to eat it in moderation. Damn.

    Is this the greatest recipe??? Hubby thought he’d prevent me from making ice cream by NOT purchasing an ice cream maker. Heh, heh, heh! No-churn ice cream!! Love it. I haven’t tried the mango yet but it looks wonderful. We usually add a little bit of alcohol — it helps the ice cream from freezer like a block of ice. You could do an amaretto with the mango or any other flavor you like. Your mum looks like she’s having a great time and so does Dozer!! Looking forward to your next installment.

    Hello Nagi. Writing from Tokyo, I am a great fan of of your recipes, photos and your baby Dozer! Just thought I would send you a message since you are now in Japan. Your recipes are great in many ways, but I particularly like how you go the extra mile in providing the super-detailed instructions and notes. In many other recipes I often have to read between the lines and eventually get lost, but not with your recipes. Thank you so much for your hard work. Would be nice if you could share some Japan-inspired recipes when you get back to Australia!

        Hi Nagi, Thanks for the reply! It’s FREEZING here in Tokyo, and we’ve actually had some snow yesterday and the day before. I seriously want to join Dozer and the other Goldens swimming in the summer sun!
        Yes, I understand that authentic Japanese recipes are reserved for your mother (BTW, she’s an awesome skier! She looks so young!). I eagerly await the Japanese recipes with that scrumptious “Nagi” twist! Take care and have a safe trip home xxx.

      Hi Eiko, thanks so much for taking the time to write in! I’m having an absolute blast here in Japan, I just love it so much! From the moment I step off the plane 🙂 I’d love to share some japanese inspired recipes, I’m not “allowed” to share authentic ones because my mother does them on her blog -> http://japan.recipetineats.com Thanks again for your message!

    It’s here finally! I remember discussing this a while back with you. I definitely prefer this version as opposed to the other i make for Dave with the date and coconut milk, but it’s better for a diabetic. I’m all in on the whipping cream and condensed milk version myself. 🙂 Glad you’re having a fun time.

      Hi Kev! I know, it took forever! I didn’t want to do too many mango recipes in a row given not everyone has them in abundance at the moment! 🙂 Hope you and Dave and the fur balls are WELL! N x
