Strawberry-banana Sorbet

Total Time: 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 3
  • 2 frozen bananas (peel ripe bananas and wrap with plastic wrap before freezing solid)
  • 2 cups frozen strawberries (or fruit of choice)
  • milk
  • artificial sweetener, of choice (liquid sweeteners dissolve best)

Recipe

  • 1 take the frozen bananas out of the freezer and break them into 3 or 4 pieces.
  • 2 place them and the strawberries into the food processor and allow them to sit for about 10 minutes, to thaw only slightly.
  • 3 cover and start the food processor. (don't be surprised when the processor bucks like an angry bull when the blade hits that frozen fruit!)
  • 4 with it running, add just a little bit of "milk" (you can also use water or juice here) to help the fruit blend smoothly.
  • 5 i recommend about 1/4 to 1/2 cup liquid for the amount of fruit used here.
  • 6 stop the processor from time to time and scrape down the sides.
  • 7 keep processing until the fruit is the smooth consistency of soft-serve ice cream.
  • 8 add sweetener to taste and process briefly one more time.
  • 9 serve immediately.
  • 10 or you can put the whole processor into the freezer until you're ready to eat and give it another blending right before serving.
  • 11 the sorbet can also be stored in a plastic container for up to a few days and re-processed to soften.
