Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (diced) Fresh pineapple
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.5 cups Buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a blender or food processor, add the diced pineapple and granulated sugar.
Blend the mixture until smooth. If desired, you can strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pulp for a smoother texture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pineapple puree with the buttermilk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Stir well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed by adding a bit more sugar, stirring until dissolved.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20–25 minutes.
Once churned, transfer the sherbet to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours for a firmer texture.
Before serving, let the sherbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy!
