Strawberry-Banana Sorbet

Submitted by dojemi

"I found this recipe on a Fat-free Vegan site. I'm not a Vegan but it sounded delicious enough to save the recipe. This makes about 3 large servings. Add an extra frozen banana or cup of fruit for each additional serving. Prep time does not including the time to freeze the fruit."

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 4
• Serves: 3

ingredients

• 2 frozen bananas (peel ripe bananas and wrap with plastic wrap before freezing solid)
• 2 cups frozen strawberries (or fruit of choice)
• milk
• artificial sweetener, of choice (liquid sweeteners dissolve best)

directions

1. Take the frozen bananas out of the freezer and break them into 3 or 4 pieces.
2. Place them and the strawberries into the food processor and allow them to sit for about 10 minutes, to thaw only slightly.
3. Cover and start the food processor. (Don't be surprised when the processor bucks like an angry bull when the blade hits that frozen fruit!)
4. With it running, add just a little bit of "milk" (you can also use water or juice here) to help the fruit blend smoothly.
5. I recommend about 1/4 to 1/2 cup liquid for the amount of fruit used here.
6. Stop the processor from time to time and scrape down the sides.
7. Keep processing until the fruit is the smooth consistency of soft-serve ice cream.
8. Add sweetener to taste and process briefly one more time.
9. Serve immediately.
10. Or you can put the whole processor into the freezer until you're ready to eat and give it another blending right before serving.
11. The sorbet can also be stored in a plastic container for up to a few days and re-processed to soften.
