No Churn Pineapple Chile Sorbet
Description
No Churn Pineapple Chile Sorbet uses ripe pineapple cut into chunks and frozen before blending with lime juice and spices including chipotle chile powder and optional cayenne pepper. The preparation yields a bright sorbet where the natural sugars of the pineapple combine with the smoky and spicy notes from the chiles. The method involves freezing the pineapple on a baking sheet, then processing it with the spices and lime for a smooth consistency. This sorbet can be served immediately for a soft-serve texture or refrozen to firm up. Garnishing with fresh mint and a sprinkle of chile powder adds a refreshing and aromatic touch. Its combination of tropical fruit and spice gives it a balanced flavor profile that suits those who enjoy sweet desserts with a hint of heat.
Ingredients
- 1 pineapple
- 1 lime juiced
- 1 tsp chipotle chile powder
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper powder omit for less heat
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, foil, or a silicone mat.
- Slice off the leafy top from the pineapple. Use a sharp knife to slice away the outer peel. Slice the pineapple into 1 inch slices, core and all. Chop the slices into bite sized pieces.
- Arrange the pineapple on the baking sheet. Freeze for 2 hours, or until frozen solid.
- Put the frozen pineapple chunks into a high power blender or food processor. Add the lime juice and spices. Process until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the machine as necessary.
- Serve right away for a slushy, soft-serve consistency, otherwise, spoon the mixture into a loaf pan and put in the freezer to firm up, at least 4 hours.
- Scoop and enjoy, garnished with fresh mint and a sprinkle of chile powder.
