Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups (diced) Fresh pineapple, peeled and cored
- 1 cup Coconut milk (full fat, canned)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.125 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Shredded coconut (unsweetened, optional for garnish)
Instructions
Dice the peeled and cored fresh pineapple into small chunks to yield approximately 3 cups.
In a blender or food processor, combine the diced pineapple, coconut milk, granulated sugar, freshly squeezed lime juice, and salt.
Blend at high speed until the mixture is fully pureed, smooth, and creamy.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or tartness if necessary by adding more sugar or lime juice, blending again to incorporate.
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container with a lid. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until firm.
Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to scoop.
Optional: If using shredded coconut for garnish, lightly toast it in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden and fragrant, then let it cool.
Scoop the sorbet into bowls or cones and sprinkle toasted shredded coconut on top for a delightful crunch, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing tropical flavors!
