The boys and I love peaches! Every time I go to the grocery store lately, I’ve been picking up a bag of peaches to enjoy for snack time. I just came across a few peach recipes that I really want to try this weekend!
This Peach Sorbet looks amazing! I cannot wait to try it - I think it will be perfect on those hot days that we still have left this fall! I love that this recipe only takes THREE ingredients - so easy!!
Recipe + Picture from Chef Not Required: https://www.chefnotrequired.com/peach-sorbet-recipe/
Ingredients:
- 8 ripe yellow peaches - fresh or frozen 800g sliced & peeled
- 200 g caster sugar (see notes)
- 1 tbsp* lemon juice to taste (see notes)
Instructions:
- Slice the peaches into 8, and peel each slice.
- Place peach slices in the bowl of a food processor, along with sugar and process until smooth, scraping down the sides as you go.
- Once smooth, add lemon juice to taste.
- Freeze for 6-7 hours, or until firm.
A couple of notes to make it even better:
- Don't add all of the lemon juice in at once - you need to add it to taste. It also may seem like a strange ingredient, but it really brings out the flavour of the peaches.
- The ratio of fruit to sugar you are looking for to get the right consistency is basically 4:1 fruit to sugar. I work this out is by weight. I weigh the sliced & peeled fruit, then divide it by 4, which is the amount of sugar I add. In this recipe, my sliced peaches weighed 800g, so divide that by 4 and you get 200g.
- If you want to scale the recipe up or down, it should still be a good consistency as long as you stick with that ratio of 4:1 fruit to sugar.
