Low sugar. No churn. Three ingredients. Healthy and flavorful. Cool and creamy. What’s not to love?
This is the best sherbet I have ever eaten. It is just stunningly delicious. And the best news? you can make this healthy sherbet in just a few minutes of prep time.
I love, love LOVE fresh peaches in the summer. My favorite all time summer fruit – I love to eat them plain, standing over the sink and letting the juices drip down all the way to my elbows. Delicious! Ripe flavorful peaches just scream out “IT’S SUMMER!”
So I saw in Martha Stewart Living this month an idea for making fresh peach sherbet.In Martha’s recipe, there are only two ingredients – and a lot of sweetened condensed milk.
I wanted to try this with only a tiny bit of sweetened condensed milk – and adding some lemon zest for brightness. This is astonishingly good – with so little sugar and dairy – just a touch.
You are basically eating peaches, just frozen and then whirled in a food processor.
It takes just a few minutes of your active time – though you will have to freeze the peaches, so there is wait time.
The results are stunning. I made this a few days ago and The Hubs and I literally licked the bowl. And he is already asking me “When are you making that peach ice cream again?”
LOW-SUGAR NO-CHURN FRESH PEACH SHERBET
2 pounds peaches, about 6 large peaches total (weighed with peels and pits removed)
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk (I used Eagle brand milk)
1 tablespoon lemon zest
Slice the peaches into slices and place on a baking sheet. Freeze until solid, at least one hour.
Place frozen peach slices into a food processor with the milk and zest. Whirl in food processor, stopping frequently to wipe down sides of food processor. Whirl until completely creamy – for about 3 minutes.
Serve as is for a soft serve feel, or place in freezer for up to 30 minutes to make sherbet a little more firm.
