Creating delicious sorbet requires only two ingredients: frozen fruit and a natural sweetener like maple syrup or honey. Begin by blending the frozen fruit on low speed before increasing to high until a smooth purée forms. For a true sorbet texture, continue blending until velvety smooth, then freeze the mixture for about three hours. Variations can include mixing different fruits to create unique flavors, such as blending blackberries with raspberries or combining mango with pineapple for a tropical twist.
Making a good sorbet could feel like a challenge that can only be surmounted by professional pastry chefs. But here's one secret that'll turn your dessert game upside down: you can make a wicked sorbet using just two ingredients, and about two minutes of your time (roughly)! The first ingredient is frozen fruit. Any type that you fancy (or currently have in the fridge) will do, like frozen grapes.
Pulse the frozen fruit in the blender on low speed for about a minute, and keep a close eye on the mixture as it's broken down. If the fruit chunks are too thick for the blender to break up, you can help things along with a tablespoon of water. Then, blitz on high for an extra minute. At this point, it should look like there's a smooth purée forming inside the blender.
But for a genuine sorbet, keep the blender running for a few more minutes until the fruity mixture is velvety smooth. Freeze this mixture and in as little as three hours, you'll have a bowl full of sorbet to kick back with!
You don't necessarily have to keep your sorbet a single-fruit affair. If you've got a variety in the fridge, consider mixing-and-matching them for a frozen flavor fest. You can blend blackberries and raspberries together, for instance, and they'll complement one another nicely.
