#1,757: Fresh Peach Sorbet

Over the summer we went peach picking and those peaches went straight into the freezer.  I kind of forgot they were there until a few weeks ago, so I decided to use them up to make some healthy sorbet/ice cream for my kids.  Although this recipe was easy, my kids weren't super excited about this one...but I think part of that may have been my peaches.  Apparently I don't know how to pick peaches because they were all under ripe and started molding before they ripened...hence why I stuck them in the freezer.  Would I make this again?  No.  Would I try it again with over-ripe peaches?  Yes. 

5 medium-size ripe peaches (approx. 4 cups)
2 tablespoons raw honey
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
2 teaspoons lemon zest

Remove the pits from the peaches and then roughly dice into 1” cubes. Transfer them to a freezer bag or freezer-safe container then place them in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Once they are frozen, remove them from the freezer and transfer to a food processor. You might have to let them defrost for 10 minutes or so so they are able to break loose. Add the honey, almond milk and lemon zest to the processor as well then blend until smooth.

Next transfer the mixture to a freezer safe container and then smooth it down with a spoon or spatula. Seal the container and place in the freezer for at least 4 hours then serve cold and enjoy!
