Strawberry Coconut Sorbet
Description
Strawberry Coconut Sorbet uses frozen strawberries blended with room temperature full-fat coconut milk and an optional touch of maple syrup to form a smooth base. The sorbet achieves a creamy texture from the coconut milk, while the natural brightness of strawberries keeps it light and fruity. After blending, freezing the mixture for about three hours firms it up for easier scooping. For serving, drizzling melted chocolate and sprinkling shredded coconut provide contrasting textures and richer taste notes. The sorbet can be kept frozen for up to two weeks without significant loss of quality.
Ingredients
- 16 oz strawberry frozen
- 1 .5-oz can coconut milk room temp, full-fat
- ¼ cup maple syrup optional
- chocolate chips shredded coconut, melted, drizzle, for toppings
- coconut oil shredded coconut, melted, drizzle, for toppings
Instructions
- Blend: Add strawberries, coconut milk and maple syrup into a high powered blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. You can enjoy right away or let the sorbet harden up a bit in the freezer.
- Freeze: Place sorbet in a container (I used a loaf pan lined with parchment paper). Place in the freezer for about 3 hours. Remove from freezer, let thaw for 5-10 minutes, just until you can easily scoop it.
- Serve: Use an ice cream scoop to scoop the sorbet into cups and enjoy. I like topping the sorbet with a drizzle of melted chocolate and shredded coconut. If you let the mixture freeze longer than a few hours it will become very hard and you'll need to let it thaw longer before scooping, about 20 to 30 minutes.
Notes
- Store the sorbet in the freezer for up to two weeks to maintain freshness.
- Allow sorbet to soften slightly after freezing for easier scooping, typically about 5 to 10 minutes.
- Use toppings like melted chocolate and shredded coconut to enhance flavor and texture.
