sherbet

  • 4 cup Chopped frozen apricots*, cut into ~1-2 inch pieces (Ripe, not firm // 15-20 fresh apricots, chopped ~4 cups or 560 g)
  • 1/3-1/2 cup coconut cream (We used virgin forest)
  • 1/4 cup Agave nectar*
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Cut and freeze the apricots at least 6 hours before enjoying the sorbet. We like to place the cut pieces on a baking sheet or plate lined with parchment paper before freezing to prevent them from sticking together.

  • If you want to enjoy your sorbet with a candied pistachio topping, prepare it before you start making the sorbet.
  • When you're ready to enjoy the sorbet, place the frozen apricots in a food processor and pulse until small pieces form. Scrape down the sides and add the coconut cream (starting small), agave, and lemon zest. Mix again until food processor starts to run smoothly, scraping down sides as needed. Once the mixture is almost smooth, leave the processor on for at least 1 minute to get the creamiest consistency possible! Taste and adjust. Add more coconut cream for creaminess or to help with blending, or more agave for sweetness.
  • Top with optional chopped candied pistachios and enjoy immediately! Or, if you prefer a firmer sorbet, store it in an airtight container in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours or until ready to serve. If frozen for more than a few hours, take it out and thaw for 10 to 15 minutes to make it easier to remove. Leftovers can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

*Agave nectar has a neutral flavor and adds a sweetness that allows the apricot flavor to shine. You can use other liquid sweeteners, such as maple syrup or honey, but the flavor will be different and will not be as “apricot”.
*Inspired by Apricot Lihing Lemon Peel Ice Cream from Garden Creamery in San Francisco, California.
*Nutritional information is a rough estimate, reducing the amount of coconut cream and not including optional candied pistachios.
