    How to make blueberry peach sorbet

    This blueberry peach sorbet takes under 10 minutes to make in a food processor or blender. It’s easy to make, vegan, and the most refreshing summer dessert. Here are detailed step-by-step instructions with pictures for visual reference so any level cook can make them. The full recipe and ingredient measurements are at the bottom of this page in the recipe card.

    Step 1:

    First, toss the frozen blueberries, peaches, and sugar together in a mixing bowl.

    Step 2:

    Next, dump that mixture into a food processor and pulse it a few times. Then, process continuously for 30 seconds. Once that is done, use a rubber spatula to scrape the bottoms and sides. It will look mealy still. Let the fruit and sugar sit together for 5 minutes.

    Step 3:

    Finally, add the lemon juice and process until thick and smooth. No sugar granules should be remaining.

    Serve immediately as is or freeze for a few hours or overnight.

    Tips for making homemade sorbet without an ice cream machine

    1. Don’t add water to your sorbet. Most recipes ask you to add water to your sorbet. I avoid this at all costs because water will make homemade sorbet hard and icy when you store it.
    2. Use a 4:1 fruit-to-sugar ratio. This ensures the PERFECT homemade healthy sorbet. A 4:1 ratio means 400 grams of frozen fruit and 100 grams of white sugar. Measuring cups with huge chunks of fruit can sometimes be off, so I like to use a food scale.
    3. Let the fruit and sugar sit for 5 minutes. It sounds unnecessary, but this step is so important! Allow your frozen fruit to sit with the sugar for 5 minutes after a few pulses in a food processor. This method draws the moisture out of the fruit and makes it easier to process without adding water.
    4. Use a food scale. Like tip #2, I always recommend investing in a good food scale, so your baked goods and homemade sorbet are perfect every time. This helps if you are doubling or tripling this recipe.
    5. Don’t use ice. If your sorbet is “too wet,” freeze it for 30 minutes before serving. DO NOT add ice – it will make the sorbet icy.
    6. Use honey instead of sugar. You can use honey instead of white sugar to make this homemade sorbet refined-sugar-free. However, I find the sorbet to be sweeter when using honey, so I recommend using 1/3 cup, not 1/2 cup.

    Why this blueberry peach sorbet recipe is healthy:

    This homemade blueberry peach sorbet is healthy for many reasons; here are a few:

    1. Only 4 Ingredients. This healthy recipe has no preservatives, fake flavors, or random ingredients. Homemade peach and blueberry sorbet calls for 4 simple ingredients.
    2. Less Sugar. This homemade peach blueberry sorbet calls for 1/2 cup of sugar, while most recipes on the internet call for at least 2/3 to 3/4 cups.
    3. Fewer Calories. This healthy and vegan blueberry peach sorbet recipe only has 144 calories! Store-bought sorbets have over 250+ calories per 2/3 cup serving.
    4. No fruit juice. Many sorbet recipes call for fruit juice which is packed with refined sugars. We only use frozen fruit!

    Gelato vs. sorbet vs. sorbetto

    Sorbet (also called sorbetto) is a dairy-free version of gelato. Unlike traditional gelato, sorbet is egg-free, milk-free, and dairy-free, which makes it a great frozen vegan treat. Likewise, sorbet (sorbetto) is typically healthier and lower in calories than gelato since it calls for simple ingredients like fresh fruit and sugar. Texture-wise, gelato is creamier and richer than sorbet (sorbetto).

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I use fresh blueberries and peaches?

    You can certainly buy fresh blueberries and peaches, but you must freeze them before making this blueberry peach sorbet. If not, the sorbet will be almost like a smoothie, and you want to avoid adding ice, so the sorbet remains soft and smooth.

    Can I use a blender, not a food processor?

    For best results, use a food processor. That being said, you can easily make this blueberry peach sorbet in a blender too. I have tested it a few times and have noticed that the blending process takes longer and there are sometimes a few pieces of fruit left. However, the sorbet is still delicious!

    What can I substitute the sugar with?

    You can use honey instead of white sugar to make this homemade sorbet refined-sugar-free. However, I find the sorbet to be sweeter when using honey, so I recommend using 1/3 cup, not 1/2 cup.

    Why is my homemade sorbet icy?

    Your homemade sorbet is icy because you (1) added water, (2) added ice, or (3) used fresh (not frozen) fruit. It is essential to avoid using water in your homemade sorbet because when you re-freeze it to store, the extra moisture will crystalize. Ice will never fully blend into the sorbet, so you will be left with ice chunks. Fresh fruit will re-freeze and cause an icy texture.

    How to make sorbet without an ice cream maker?

    You can easily make sorbet without an ice cream maker. To do this, you’ll need a food processor and frozen fruit. Homemade sorbet takes less than 10 minutes to make without an ice cream maker.

    Is this sorbet recipe vegan?

    Yes! This blueberry peach sorbet is 100% vegan since we only use frozen fruit, sugar, and lemon juice.

    Is sorbet gluten-free?

    Yes, sorbet is gluten-free.

    Can I double or triple the recipe?

    You can easily double or triple this recipe. Simply follow the same instructions and make sure your food processor is big enough to hold all the ingredients. You may need to work in batches. TIP: ensure you are using the 4:1 fruit-to-sugar ratio!

    What is sorbetto?

    Sorbetto (also called sorbet) is dairy-free ice cream. There is no milk, no cream, and it is 100% vegan. Sorbetto is typically healthier than ice cream or gelato and calls for simple ingredients like fresh fruit and sugar. It is lower in fat and made with more wholesome ingredients.

    Can I make it ahead of time?

    Absolutely! You can freeze this blueberry peach sorbet in a parchment-lined sealed container for up to 1 week. For best results, allow it to sit at room temperature for about 15 to 20 minutes before scooping.

    How to store leftovers:

    Easily store extra sorbet in a parchment-lined sealed container for up to 1 week in your freezer. When you are ready to enjoy, allow the sorbet to sit at room temperature for about 15 to 20 minutes.
