Healthy Ninja Creami berry sorbet recipe made with fresh fruit. This refined sugar free, dairy free dessert is smooth, refreshing, and easy to make at home.
Put 250 g Strawberries, 125 g Raspberries, 125 g Blueberries, 2 tablespoon Lemon juice and 2 tablespoon Maple syrup into a saucepan. Heat over a medium heat mashing the berries down with a wooden spoon.
Continue to cook the berries down until it has thickened, about 10 minutes.
Place a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and pour in the cooked berries. Use a wooden spoon to press the berries through the sieve, leaving just the pulp (see below for uses).
This will leave the mixed berry juice in the bowl. Allow this to cool.
Once cooled, pour the juice into the Ninja Creami pint tub and top up with 250 ml Water, not exceeding the max fill line.
Put the lid on the tub and freeze for 24 hours.
Remove the lid and put the frozen pint tub into the outer bowl and put on the outer bowl lid. Put into the Ninja Creami machine and set to the Sorbet setting and spin. After the first spin it will probably result in a crumbly texture.
Add 1 tablespoon of cold water and replace the tub in the machine and press Re-spin. This may take a little more water and another re-spin to achieve the perfect creamy consistency.
Notes
Use ripe berries for the best flavour. If your fruit is under-ripe, the sorbet may taste sharper and less naturally sweet, so you may want to add a little extra maple syrup.
Let the cooked berry mixture cool before transferring it to the pint. This helps preserve freezer temperature and encourages a more even freeze.
Make sure the mixture is frozen completely solid before spinning. A full 24 hours is best, especially in the larger Deluxe pint.
If the sorbet looks powdery after the first spin, that is normal. Fruit sorbets often need a re-spin to become creamy and evenly textured.
Always freeze the pint on a level surface. A flat freeze gives the machine the best chance of processing the base evenly.
