Ingredients
Ingredients
- 450 grams frozen strawberries
- Juice of 1 lemon (seeds removed)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup (refer to blog notes for substitute recommendations)
Instructions
- Freeze the Strawberries: Ensure your strawberries are fully frozen solid. This step is crucial to achieve the creamy sorbet texture without needing an ice cream maker.
- Blend the Ingredients: Place the frozen strawberries, lemon juice, and maple syrup into a food processor or high-speed blender. Blend the mixture, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides, until you reach a smooth and silky consistency.
- Serve or Store: Serve the sorbet immediately for a soft-serve experience. If you have leftovers, store them in the freezer. When ready to eat again, allow it to thaw slightly for easier scooping and optimal texture.
Notes
- Using frozen strawberries is essential for the right texture.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with agave syrup or honey if preferred.
- For a stronger lemon flavor, zest some lemon before juicing and add it to the blender.
- Sorbet texture is best enjoyed immediately or after slight thawing if stored.
- If your blender struggles, allow strawberries to thaw for a few minutes before blending.
