Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 pound frozen fruit
  • 1/2 cup yogurt or silken tofu
  • 1/4 cup sugar

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine the fruit, yogurt, and sugar with 2 tablespoons water. Process until just puréed and creamy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. If the fruit isn’t breaking apart, add more water 1 or 2 tablespoons at a time. Be careful not to overprocess.
  2. Serve immediately or freeze in a sealed container for later. It gets very hard in the freezer, so thaw at room temperature for 15 minutes or in the refrigerator for about 1 hour before serving.

Recipe variations

Creamy All-Fruit Sorbet
Frozen bananas break down to a soft-serve-like creaminess; add a bit more frozen fruit to minimize the banana flavor if you like: Replace the yogurt or tofu with 1 peeled, chopped, frozen banana. Process it on its own until creamy before adding the fruit and sugar; use fruit juice or water as needed to keep the machine working.

Mango-Coconut Sorbet
Use frozen mangoes for the fruit and coconut milk instead of the yogurt or tofu.

Cherry-Chocolate Sorbet
Use frozen pitted cherries for the fruit. In Step 1, add 4 ounces chopped chocolate to the food processor along with the rest of the ingredients.

Peach-Ginger Sorbet
Use frozen peaches for the fruit. In Step 1, add 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger to the food processor along with the rest of the ingredients.
