ACAI-BANANA SORBET

Acai is the purple, berrylike fruit from a palm tree that grows in Central and South America. It's packed with antioxidants and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. We love it partnered with frozen banana for a low-calorie, low-carbohydrate sorbet.

Time 8h10m

Yield 4 1/2 servings (1/2 cup per)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 ripe medium bananas, peeled
Two 3.5-ounce packets frozen unsweetened acai puree
1 tablespoon virgin or extra-virgin coconut oil
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Cut each banana into 6 chunks, and freeze until rock solid, preferably overnight.
  • With the acai inside the packet, crush the puree into smaller pieces. Process the pieces in a food processor to a fine slush. Add the frozen banana chunks, coconut oil and maple syrup, and begin to process (the food processor may jolt in the very beginning). As the bananas break down and combine with the acai, the mixture will look crumbly, then gooey and eventually smooth and slightly slushy, like a sorbet. Stop the food processor frequently to scrape down the side of the bowl and break up any clumps. Serve right away, or scrape into a container and freeze until ready to serve.

BANANA-BLUEBERRY SORBET



Banana-Blueberry Sorbet image

When I was a professional baker, foodies would walk into the kitchen, look down their noses at my gorgeous flats of cultivated blueberries, and sneer, "Oh, I only like wild blueberries." Then they'd stand there making idle chat while grabbing fistfuls of domestic blueberries and gobbling them up. Wild blueberries are indeed wonderful, but they can be hard to find (unlike annoying food snobs), so you can use any kind of blueberry here. Just don't gobble them all up, or let anyone else do so, before you get a chance to use them.

Yield makes about 1 quart (1 liter)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 medium-sized ripe banana, peeled
2 cups (360 g) blueberries, fresh or frozen
3/4 cup (180 ml) water
1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice

Steps:

  • Cut the banana into chunks and purée in a blender or food processor with the blueberries, water, sugar, and lemon or lime juice until smooth and few discernible bits of blueberry skins remain.
  • Chill the mixture thoroughly, then freeze it in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • To make Banana-Blackberry Sorbet, substitute 2 cups (240 g) fresh or frozen blackberries for the blueberries.
  • Make a fruit salad combining pineapple, tangerines, bananas, and any available berries, tossing the fruits with a bit of sugar and dark rum. Serve with a scoop of Banana-Blueberry Sorbet.
