Pineapple Mint Blender Sorbet
/This home made dessert is as delicious and refreshing as store-bught sorbet, but has a tiny fraction of the sugar. It takes only a few minutes to make if you have frozen pineapple in your freezer. I love to buy pineapples while they are in-season, plentiful and cheap, and freeze them ready to make divine frozen desserts with them.
This sorbet is best made immediately before serving. If you freeze it overnight it can become too hard to eat straight from the freezer.
Ingredients
One pineapple, peeled, cut into chunks and frozen.
One small handful mint leaves (no stalks or stems), finely chopped
1-2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey*
Method
Place all ingredients in a Vitamix or other high-speed blender
Blend until a fluffy sorbet consistency is achieved. You may need to use the blender's Tamper to make sure all of the pineapple chunks are evenly blended.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
* Taste your sorbet before you add any sweetener. If you have a sweet pineapple you may not need any added sweetener.
