Ingredients
- 1 can (15-20 oz) Canned fruit (e.g., peaches, pineapple, or mixed fruit)
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Drain the canned fruit, reserving 3 tablespoons of the syrup or juice from the can (you can discard the rest of the syrup).
Step 2
In a blender or food processor, combine the drained canned fruit, reserved syrup, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and water.
Step 3
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Step 4
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar if necessary, blending again briefly.
Step 5
Pour the blended fruit mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe container, spreading it evenly.
Step 6
Freeze the mixture for 2-3 hours or until it begins to firm up but is still scoopable.
Step 7
Once firm, use a fork or spoon to stir the mixture to break up any ice crystals, then return to the freezer for another hour.
Step 8
Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls and enjoy immediately!
