Variations
- Raspberry Peach: Replace half the peaches with frozen raspberries for a refreshing flavor.
- Mango: Frozen mango makes a wonderfully light sorbet and can be substituted in a 1:1 ratio for the peaches.
- Add Fruit: Add some frozen blueberries or other berries to the sorbet mix before freezing for some added flavor and crunch.
- Sugar: If you prefer not to use granulated sugar, you can use honey, pure maple syrup, agave nectar, or any liquid sweetener you prefer instead.
- Lemon juice: If you prefer lime, you can swap out the lemon juice for lime juice.
How To Make This Peach Sorbet: Step-By-Step
Here are some quick visual instructions. Remember that full instructions with the exact ingredients are in the printable recipe card:
Step 1: Mix together the granulated sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat on the stove. Cook until the simple syrup made with the sugar dissolves into a simple syrup. Remove from heat and cool completely.
Step 2: Add all frozen peaches, fresh lemon juice, and the simple syrup into a blender.
Step 3: Blend on high until completely smooth.
Step 4: Scoop the mixture into a loaf pan and even it out. Cover with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Freeze it for at least 5 hours before enjoying.
Recipe Tips
- Other sugars can be used in the peach sorbet as per your own personal preference. However, they may take longer to dissolve in the water and the texture may be slightly different in the end product.
- You can use fresh peach slices for this sorbet. Make sure to peel them first and know that you may lose a bit of the thick consistency that you can when using frozen fruit. When I tested this with canned peaches I didn't like the consistency as much.
Gwen's Pro Tip
You can use a food processor for this sorbet in place of a blender.
This peach sorbet also fits beautifully into a larger warm-weather dessert lineup when you want something light, fresh, and fruit-driven. If you are leaning into seasonal flavors, my Apple Cranberry Tart offers a rustic baked fruit option, while the Pistachio Ricotta Cake brings a soft, lightly sweet contrast that pairs nicely with chilled desserts. For chocolate lovers, the Chocolate Covered Cherries add a rich, indulgent bite, creating a balanced mix of bright fruit and deeper flavors across your dessert table.
Peach Sorbet FAQ's
Depending on the water amount in the peaches, your sorbet may freeze solid. Just let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping.
If you have a heavy-duty blender, you can leave the skin on the ripe peaches as it's easier. However, most blenders aren't powerful enough to pulverize the skin so it's often better to peel the peaches so that you don't have little skin chunks throughout your sorbet. If you love nectarines, this Tomato Nectarine Salad is delicious!
In the freezer sealed in an airtight container, it will last for 2-3 months. However, it will become completely frozen. So, when you need it, make sure to let it thaw on the counter for 5 minutes before serving.
