The Summer Mango Coconut Cream is great for breakfast, or an after-school snack or I like to surprise the kids with one in their lunchboxes. For school, I just pour it straight into this insulated container and pop it into the fridge, and serve with the Crunchy Seed Granola from my Easy Wholefood Lunchboxes ebook before packing it into their school bag.

Be sure to check out more delicious sweet snack recipes like Coconut Rough Cookies, Brownie Fudge, and Rustic Apple Slice, in my Easy Wholefood Lunchboxes ebook .

Many of the ingredients in this recipe can be sourced from my one-stop-favourite, organic wholefoods online store, The Wholefood Collective. They go to great lengths to ensure everything they source is amazing quality, they stock all my favorite products and I don’t even have to leave the house! Oh, and the cherry on the cake is they donate profits to improve food security for vulnerable Aussies.

Who doesn’t like to pop into the local gelato shop while you’re waiting for the cool change to sweep across and cool everyone off?

We could easily make gelato a daily ritual in the summertime, but to avoid common nasties like skim milk powder, dextrose, stabilizers, colours, preservatives and the high amounts of refined sugar, you can make your own in less than 5 minutes with only 5 ingredients.

You get 6 servings out of it and it’s much lighter on the wallet. The kids reckon it’s better too! When I asked why they said because it tastes ‘real’. Howzat?!

This is a recipe I have adapted from the Thermomix Everyday Cookbook.

Mango Sorbet

Ingredients

50 grams rapadura or coconut sugar (optional as the mango itself provides enough sweetness)
400 grams frozen mango
1 egg white (save the yellow to throw into scrambled eggs)
300 grams ice cubes
Dash of coconut cream

Preparation

Place sugar into a food processor or blender and mill until resembles castor sugar.

Add mango, egg white, coconut cream, and ice cubes and pulse to break into smaller pieces, gradually increase speed then whizz on high until blended.

Top with chopped macadamia nuts and shredded coconut.

Thermomix instructions

Place sugar into mixing bowl and mill 8 sec/speed 9.

Add mango, egg white, coconut cream, and ice and blend 20 sec/speed 10, gradually increasing speed from speed 1 – speed 10, use a spatula to assist.

Check if it has blended well and is nice and creamy, if not, continue to blend as needed on speed 9.

Freeze the rest and make sure to thaw for 10 minutes prior to serving.
