Ingredients You’ll Need for Peach Sorbet:

When making peach sorbet, you will need simple ingredients that you likely already have on hand:

Essential Ingredients:

• 1 (15.25 oz) can peach chunks with the juice (I recommend Del Monte for its rich flavor and sweetness)

Optional Add-Ons:

• 1-2 tsp. Fresh lime juice: This is fantastic for adding a hint of acidity to balance the sweetness of the peaches.
• Pinch of salt: A tiny amount enhances the overall flavor without making it salty.

These ingredients are simple and straightforward, making the recipe accessible even for beginners.

How to Make Peach Sorbet: A Step by Step Guide

Making peach sorbet with the Ninja Creami is easy! Just follow these steps and you’ll have a perfect dessert ready to enjoy.

Step 1: Mix the Base Ingredients

Start by pouring the can of peach chunks along with its juice into an empty CREAMi™ Pint. If you’re using a larger can, be careful not to overfill it. You may need to adjust the amount to fill only to the max fill line. Stir gently to combine everything well, ensuring the juice is mixed in with the peaches.

Step 2: Freeze

Next, place the pint in the freezer on a level surface, making sure the lid is off. Leave it to freeze for 24 hours. Skipping the lid is crucial here! If you freeze it with the lid on, a hump forms on top, which can damage the blade when you prepare the sorbet.

Step 3: Assemble the Ninja Creami

After 24 hours, remove the pint from the freezer. Fit it into the outer bowl and secure the lid tightly on top. Place the whole assembly on the motor base. Twist the handle on the side to raise the platform and lock it in place.

Step 4: Spin It!

Select the Sorbet setting on your Ninja Creami. The sorbet should be ready after one spin; however, if the sides appear icy or the peaches aren’t fully mixed, you can scrape down the sides and respin it once more.

Step 5: Enjoy!

Finally, remove the pint from the machine and enjoy your sorbet immediately! The texture will be creamy and smooth, ready to satisfy your cravings.

Serving Suggestions for Peach Sorbet

Peach sorbet can be enjoyed in many ways. Here are a few serving ideas to elevate your sorbet experience:

• In a Cone: Serve the sorbet in a waffle cone for an extra special touch.
• With Toppings: Top with fresh mint leaves, a dollop of whipped cream, or crushed nuts for added texture.
• As a Dessert Layer: Layer it in a parfait with yogurt or granola for breakfast or a dessert.
• Fruit Pairing: Serve alongside fresh fruit, like slices of strawberries or raspberries, for a colorful presentation.
• Cocktail Add-In: Blend the sorbet into cocktails for a unique twist or slushy drink.

Pro Tips for Perfecting Your Peach Sorbet

Want to ensure you achieve the best sorbet possible? Here are some handy tips:

• Selecting Peaches: Choose ripe, sweet peaches for the best flavor. If you’re using fresh peaches, peel and chop them before blending.
• Adjusting Sweetness: Taste your mixture before freezing; if it’s not sweet enough for your liking, consider adding a bit of honey or agave syrup.
• Blending: If you prefer an even smoother sorbet, use a blender to puree the mixture thoroughly before freezing.
• Let It Sit: If the sorbet is too hard after freezing, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften before serving.
• Customize the Flavor: Experiment with different fruits like mango or strawberries for variations on the recipe.

Easy Variations for Peach Sorbet

While the peach version is delicious, there are numerous ways to get creative with this recipe:

• Mango Peach Sorbet: Mix equal parts of peach and mango for a tropical flavor.
• Berry Peach Sorbet: Add blueberries or raspberries to the peach base for a berry twist.
• Spicy Peach Sorbet: Incorporate a pinch of cayenne or jalapeño for a surprising spicy kick.
• Coconut Peach Sorbet: Blend in coconut milk for a creamy texture and an added layer of flavor.

Storage Tips to Store Peach Sorbet

If you have leftovers (though I doubt it!), here are some tips for storing your peach sorbet:

• Keep It Sealed: Store your sorbet in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn and maintain its creamy texture.
• Label and Date: Make sure to label containers with the date, as sorbet is best enjoyed within a month for optimal freshness.
• Use a Spatula: When scooping sorbet, a spatula can help scoop out every last bit without damaging the texture.
• Avoid Refreezing: It’s best to consume the sorbet within a few days for the best flavor and texture; refreezing can lead to iciness.
