What’s better than the taste of fresh raspberry sorbet on a hot summer day … especially when it’s healthy, fat free and low in sugar!

Most sorbets are naturally low in fat (unless made with avocado or added cream), but they tend to be loaded with sugar to make up the difference. Well, not in my recipe! You get the naturally delicious taste of fresh raspberries that you can enjoy without an ounce of guilt.

Enjoy!

*NOTE: You will need an ice cream maker for this recipe.

INGREDIENTS

• 3 cups fresh raspberries (you can sub blueberries or strawberrries if you prefer)
• 1/2 cup sugar substitute (I highly recommend Swerve for this recipe due to it’s cooking functionality)
• 1/3 cup water
• Fresh juice from half of a lime
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
 

PREPARATION

• Put all ingredients (raspberries, sugar substitue, water, lime juice, salt, and vanilla extract) into a food processor and puree until smooth.

• Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and freeze according to the directions specific to your machine.

• Once the sorbet is complete, transfer to a freezer-safe container and eat as you wish.

• Yup – that’s it! Enjoy!
