Easy Organic Fruit Sorbet Recipe
Summer perfection, all wrapped up in a sweet, frozen, healthy treat that is ridiculously easy to make and a great way to use up extra fruits that might end up over ripening and ending up in the bin otherwise.
All you need is frozen fruit and a heavy duty blender or food processor. In a nutshell this is the super simple recipe:
- Cut the fruit into chunks.
- Freeze the fruit.
- Blend the frozen fruit.
You can add in other ingredients to boost the main fruity flavour such as lime or lemon juice as well as some raw honey/ maple syrup if your fruit isn’t quite sweet enough on its own. You can also add a little greek yoghurt for a frozen yoghurt style treat.
Here are some of our favourite sorbet combos:
- 3 cups raspberries
- 2 tbsp. raw honey
- 1 tsp. lemon juice
- 1/4 cup warm water, as needed
- 4 medium peaches, sliced (approx. 3 1/2 cups)
- 1 tbsp. raw honey
- 1/4 cup warm water, as needed
- 3 1/2 cups watermelon, diced
- 1 tsp. lime juice
- raw honey to taste (if watermelon is not sweet enough)
- 1/4 cup warm water, as needed
- 2 mangos, diced (approx. 3 1/2 cups)
- 1 tsp. lime juice
- 1/4 cup warm water, as needed
Method:
-
Slice the fruit into small chunks all roughly the same size
-
Lay out fruit pieces over a rimmed tray lined with baking paper/ a reusable baking sheet.
-
Freeze the fruit until completely solid, which should take at least 3-4 hours, or overnight.
-
Place the frozen fruit into the bowl of a food processor or heavy duty blender, along with a little sweetener of your choice (if necessary), and freshly squeezed lemon juice if desired.
-
Blend until smooth.
-
You may need to add a little warm water and press down with a spatula to help the process along.
-
Eat immediately for a softer texture, or transfer into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 3-4 hours or until firm.
- Serve in a bowl or a cone.
