Mango/Banana Sorbet

Mango/Banana Sorbet
I'm totally loving my new ice cream maker! I just made this recipe called Mango Sorbet from Allrecipes.com. This was another activity for my Allstar Ambassador Program...and it was goooood! Below is the ingredients I used to make the sorbet because I didn't have all the ingredients listed in the original recipe. This frozen dessert was so easy to prepare!

 I only had one mango instead of four. That's why I added 2 bananas, to make up for some of the missing mangoes. And I didn't have enough sugar to make simple syrup, so I used light corn syrup instead...which was so much easier than making simple syrup! I didn't have 3 tablespoons of fresh lime juice, but 2 tablespoons was plenty. All these changes worked perfectly!

I loved the creamy texture of the bananas in this sorbet. And the combination of the mango and banana gave the sorbet a very tropical flavor! This was my first time making sorbet.
I can't wait to experiment with other fruits!
 
Below is my version of this recipe...I hope you'll try this!

  1. This looks sooooooooooooo good Lillian, you are so tempting me to pull out my ice cream makers!!
    I have two, one is the Cuisinart, the other is also a Cuisinart, but it's from the 60's. I gotta be honest with you, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that one.
    It has a funky cord you plug into the outlet while the machine is in the freezer, but it makes the BEST ICE CREAM EVER!!!
    I should really invest in an amazing one like yours!!!
