Ninja Creami Recipes: Homemade Mixed Berry Sorbet
A bright and fruity sorbet made with mixed berries, perfect for a vegan, dairy-free dessert. Ready in under an hour with the Ninja Creami machine.
Ingredients
- 3 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries) fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or agave nectar substitute with honey if not strict vegan
- Pinch sea salt Morton's or Diamond brand
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional for creaminess
Instructions
- Blend berries, water, maple syrup, lemon juice, salt, and optional vanilla extract until smooth.
- Adjust sweetness or tartness of the purée by tasting and adding more syrup or lemon if needed.
- Distribute the purée evenly in the pint, tap to remove air bubbles, and freeze for 24 hours.
- Place pint in Ninja Creami machine, select 'Sorbet' setting, and churn for about 2-3 minutes.
- Adjust texture by respinning if too powdery or freezing for 10-15 minutes if too soft. Press down with tamper for ultra-silky results.
- Serve immediately or transfer back to freezer. Let sit for a few minutes before scooping.
Notes
For the best texture, adjust sweetness based on the berries used. Frozen berries can be blended without thawing completely.
