Apricot-Almond “Sorbet”
While we suggest apricots, this is best made with very
ripe, seasonal fruit. If apricots are not available, any other
ripe stone fruit will work — peaches and nectarines being
the best alternatives.
Makes about 3½ cups
2 pounds apricots, pitted and cut into 1-inch
pieces (or you may use other stone fruit, such
as peaches and/or nectarines − both should
be peeled and pitted)
2 tablespoons Simple Syrup (see recipe, page
11) or honey (optional, based on sweetness of
the fruit)
¼ teaspoon almond extract
¼ cup toasted, sliced or chopped almonds
1. Assemble the paddle holder of the Cuisinart
®
Fruit
Scoop™ Frozen Dessert Maker with the fresh fruit
paddle. Place in freezer bowl and turn the unit on.
While the unit is running, put the apricots, simple
syrup or honey (if using) and almond extract into the
frozen freezer bowl.
2. Once the apricot mixture is frozen, but still soft,
about 18 minutes, slowly add the almonds to the
churning mixture. Once all have been added, allow
to churn to fully mix for an additional 1 or 2 minutes.

Keep the bananas, but use any other favorite fruit to
come up with your own blend. Bananas are a good base
and lend a creaminess to almost any combination.

bananas), cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups mango (about 1 medium mango), cut
into 1-inch pieces
1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
