Pineapple and Coconut Sorbet Recipe

How to make Pineapple and Coconut Sorbet

Method

  1. Remove skin from most of pineapple and cut the flesh into cubes. You need some slices with skin on, to cut into wedges for garnish. Add pineapple flesh to into a high-powered blender with the coconut cream, sugar and lime juice. Pulse until very smooth. 
  2. Churn in an ice cream maker (according to manufacturer’s instructions) and transfer to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for a further few hours.
  3. Take out of the freezer 5-10 minutes before serving, to allow it to soften. Scoop into balls and serve in chilled bowls with fresh pineapple wedges.

Tip: Due to its relatively low sugar content, this sorbet has a harder, less yielding texture. Make sure it’s soft enough before you start scooping.

Optional: If you don’t have an ice cream maker you can turn this mixture into a granita instead. Simply freeze the mixture in a shallow container then scrape with a fork to create an icy ‘snow’.
