Introduction

This 4-ingredient peach sorbet is the perfect no-bake dessert for warm days. Smooth, creamy, and refreshing, it highlights the natural sweetness of fresh peaches with just a touch of lemon and sugar.

Ingredients

4 cups fresh peaches (about 6-8), peeled
2⁄3 cup sugar
Juice of 1 lemon
Pinch salt

Instructions

Step 1: Cut the fresh peaches into small chunks and arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze until solid, about 2-3 hours.
Step 2: Transfer the frozen peaches to a heavy-duty food processor. Add the sugar and lemon juice, and pulse a few times to break up the fruit. Then, blend until creamy and smooth. Pause to stir, press down, and scrape the sides as needed for even blending.
Step 3: Taste the sorbet and add salt if needed. Serve immediately for soft-serve consistency, or transfer the mixture to a loaf pan lined with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours.
Step 4: Serve and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

Use a high-powered food processor for best results. If it warms up or struggles, pause and let it rest before continuing.
Add a splash of water or milk (1 tablespoon at a time) if the fruit isn’t blending smoothly to achieve a creamy texture.
Cut the peaches into small chunks to help the processor blend evenly.
If the sorbet is too hard after freezing, let it soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping.

Storage

Store the sorbet in an airtight container in the freezer for up to one week. To serve, allow it to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use frozen peaches instead of fresh?

While fresh peaches give the best flavor, you can use frozen peaches that are unsweetened. Just make sure they are thawed slightly before blending for best texture.

Do I need to peel the peaches?

Peeling is recommended for a smoother sorbet texture, but if you don’t mind a bit of texture and extra fiber, you can leave the skin on.
