Ingredients
Scale
Fruit
- 5 kiwis, peeled and diced
Sweetener
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
Herbs
- 2 tablespoons chopped mint
Instructions
- Prepare the Kiwis: Peel the skin off the kiwi and cut each kiwi into 1/2 inch chunks. Place the diced kiwi pieces in a freezer-safe bag or container to prepare for freezing.
- Freeze the Kiwis: Place the container or bag of diced kiwi in the freezer and freeze for at least 3 hours or until the kiwis are fully frozen. This step is essential to achieve the sorbet’s smooth, icy texture.
- Blend the Ingredients: In a food processor or blender, combine the frozen kiwi chunks, the 1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup, and the 2 tablespoons of chopped mint. Blend for at least 2 minutes until you have a smooth and creamy sorbet consistency.
- Serve: Scoop the fresh kiwi sorbet into bowls and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup to make the recipe vegan.
- For a smoother texture, you can blend the kiwi for longer or add a splash of water or lemon juice.
- Use very ripe kiwis for maximum sweetness and flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer and allow to thaw slightly before serving.
