The great thing about a food processor or high-speed blender is that you can transform two frozen ingredients into a delicious sorbet. Frozen bananas are no match for the power of these appliances! The best part about making a sorbet solely from fruit is that it doesn’t contain any added sugars, syrups, flavors, or dairy products.
Some sorbets (not all) incorporate dairy to yield a creamy consistency. By adding frozen banana, you don’t have to worry about the creaminess factor. Frozen banana helps create a smooth, creamy consistency, while also providing enough sweetness. If you find that the kiwi flavor is a bit to tart or intense, you can blend in a touch of raw agave nectar or maple syrup to sweeten the sorbet. If you do not enjoy the tartness of kiwis, consider golden kiwis instead. Will golden kiwis change the color of the sorbet? Yes, absolutely, but they have a sweeter flavor than green varieties.
It’s pretty incredible that you can enjoy a dessert just by blending together two ingredients. This banana kiwi sorbet is a much healthier alternative to store bought pints, quarts, or gallons. You don’t even want to look at how many grams of sugar per serving these store bought varieties have! Instead, make this healthy, raw vegan dessert this summer and enjoy it during warmer weather.
