<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nIf you, or a neighbor, has a plum tree you likely hit a point in the summer when the plums ripen faster than you can eat them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enter this Plum Sorbet recipe. It is a delightful way to use up those sweet, mushy over ripe plums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sorbet versus Ice Cream<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
What is the difference between ice cream and sorbet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ice Cream<\/strong> uses dairy as a base. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sorbet <\/strong>is usually made from fruit puree with no dairy or eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sorbet<\/strong> is vegan and extremely low in fat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Both have a lot of sugar. So I wouldn't label one as healthier, that depends on your particular dietary needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All you need is a few simple ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have one, use it! If you don't you can stir it by hand in the freezer every 30 minutes to break up the mixture so it doesn't become a fruity ice cube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But even if it does over freeze, you can use a blender or food processor to make it slushy again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adjust the sugar to your taste and the sweetness of the fruit. The sweeter the fruit the less sugar you need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You could skip the 25 minute resting time in the blender, but I do not advise it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The juices will be drawn out from the plums and the sugar will dissolve completely. If you skip it and go straight to mix and freeze the sugar might not melt and the result will be a tad gritty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Making it within a few hours of serving is optimal as homemade sorbet tends to get icy if left in the freezer too long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enjoy some refreshing frozen treats to cool of this summer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n <\/p><\/div>\nIngredients for Plum Sorbet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
