Description
The first time I made this, it was a steamy Georgia day, and our ice cream machine had quit. Desperate for cool relief, I tossed frozen peaches in the blender—and magic happened! This three-ingredient sorbet is sunshine in every spoonful, with the sweet bite of summer peaches, a splash of lemon, and zero fuss. No machines, no stress—just pure, icy joy. Whether it’s for a party, picnic, or late-night treat, this peachy wonder is your go-to chill-out hero.
Ingredients
-
800g (1¾ lbs) ripe yellow peaches (peeled, sliced & frozen solid)
-
200g (1 cup) superfine sugar (or regular sugar blitzed fine)
-
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (adjust to taste)
Instructions
-
Prep Peaches: Peel, slice, and freeze your peaches solid (4+ hours or overnight).
-
Blend Bliss: Add frozen peaches, sugar, and lemon juice to a blender. Pulse, then blend until smooth and creamy (1–2 mins). Scrape sides as needed.
-
Taste & Adjust: Too tart? Add sugar. Too sweet? A bit more lemon juice.
-
Serve or Freeze: Enjoy soft-serve style right away or freeze in a lined loaf pan for 2–3 hours for scoopable sorbet. Stir once after 1 hour for best texture.
Notes
-
Unpeeled peaches = gritty texture. Peel for smooth sorbet.
-
Frozen peaches must thaw 10–15 mins before blending.
-
Add 1 tbsp honey or corn syrup if your freezer runs very cold—it keeps sorbet scoopable.
- Prep Time: 10 mins (plus freeze time)
