Fruit Smoothie Sorbet
Delicious homemade peach sorbet recipe with natural peaches, banana and coconut milk
Ingredients
- 2 cups seasonal fruit (3-4 peaches or 2 cups of berries are my favorite)
- 1 banana (optional, makes it smoother)
- 1 cup BPA free Coconut Milk or fresh juice (plus more to thin)
Instructions
- In a large blender or food processor, combine all ingredients. You could also add any other fruit or add ins to your family's taste. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until completely smooth. It should still be a thick puree.
- Pour into a freezer safe container and freeze 1-2 hours. Remove and re-blend or puree with hand blender to get smooth consistency. Return to freezer for another 1-2 hours until soft set.
- Tips: Starting with frozen fruit will greatly speed up the process if you have a strong enough blender to handle it. For an even faster method, put the fruit puree in a gallon size ziplock bag and put in a plastic or metal container with a lid (gallon coconut oil buckets and coffee cans both work well for this. Surround the bag with ice and shake or roll for about 20-30 minutes (great job for kids). This will thicken it faster and make a smoother ice cream.
