Ingredients
Ingredients
- 800 g peeled and sliced ripe yellow peaches (fresh or frozen)
- 200 g caster sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the peaches: Slice the peaches into 8 pieces each, ensuring they are peeled for a smooth texture in the sorbet.
- Blend the peaches: Place the peach slices and caster sugar into the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture is completely smooth, frequently scraping down the sides of the bowl to incorporate all the fruit evenly.
- Add lemon juice: Once the peach mixture is smooth, add the lemon juice to taste to enhance the flavor and balance the sweetness.
- Freeze the sorbet: Transfer the sorbet mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 6-7 hours or until firm. Stir occasionally if desired to maintain a smooth texture.
Notes
- For best results, use ripe, sweet peaches to ensure natural sweetness and flavor.
- You can adjust the sugar amount depending on the sweetness of your peaches.
- Lemon juice helps brighten the flavor and preserve the color of the sorbet.
- Occasional stirring during freezing helps prevent ice crystals and keeps the sorbet smooth.
- This recipe works equally well with fresh or frozen peaches.
