4.56 20 Published Aug 02, 2019, Updated Jun 12, 2023 One of my favorite summer treats as a kid was obviously ice cream. Although I’d still love to end my night with a bowl of ice cream, I try to reign in my sugar intake which is where this delicious strawberry coconut sorbet comes in. It’s super easy to make and doesn’t leave you feeling super amped up on sugar and bloated from dairy the next day.
What is N’Ice Cream?
I’m sure there are a few different ways to interpret n’ice cream, but my definition is a healthy, homemade, dairy-free ice cream! This strawberry sorbet definitely fits the bill – as it checks off all three of those!
Strawberry Coconut Sorbet Ingredients
frozen strawberries – frozen strawberries work best for this recipe. canned coconut milk – you’ll want this at room temp. If you store it in the fridge, it will be too thick. maple syrup – this is optional, you can omit if you want to keep the sugar content lower.
How to Make Strawberry Coconut Sorbet
The one kitchen appliance you’ll need for this recipe is a high powered blender or food processor (I’ve linked my favs!). Blend ingredients: Just add strawberries, coconut milk, and maple syrup into your blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy. That’s it! Serve: You can enjoy it right away – it will be soft and creamy, almost the consistency of soft-serve.
Harden in the Freezer and Thaw for Scoop-able Sorbet
The other option is to let the sorbet harden a little bit in the freezer. If you decide to freeze, spoon the sorbet into a container (I used a loaf pan lined with parchment paper) and freeze for about three hours. When you’re ready to enjoy it, remove from the freezer and let thaw for a few minutes before trying to scoop. If it’s in the freezer for longer than three hours (or even overnight), it will be quite hard and will need longer to thaw before scooping. Just sit it out on the counter and keep an eye on it. Once it’s thawed a bit, you’ll be ready to scoop!
Strawberry Coconut Sorbet Toppings
Don’t forget the toppings! My favorite combination with the strawberry coconut flavor is a drizzle of melted chocolate and shredded coconut. Let me know if you create any other noteworthy combinations!
