Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups watermelon, cubed (340g)
  • 2 cups strawberries, sliced about 16 strawberries, (300g)
  • 1 lemon, juiced 2-3 tablespoon lemon juice (~30ml)

Instructions
 

  • Freeze your fruit by cutting the watermelon into cubes and halving the strawberries. Add them in a single layer to a baking sheet and put them in the freezer for at least 3-4 hours. *Watermelon has a high water content so it takes longer than some fruit to fully freeze.
  • Once the fruit is frozen, add the fresh lemon juice and frozen fruit to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth, pushing down the sides as needed. It will take 3-5 minutes to blend.
  • Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or other freezer-safe container and freeze for another 45-60 minutes. Let the fruit thaw about 2-3 minutes before serving to make it easier to scoop.
  • Hint: to make this recipe even easier, use pre-cut watermelon and a bag of frozen strawberries.

Notes

Expert Tips
  • When freezing your fruit, line the baking sheet with parchment paper to make for easy clean up.
  • It takes a few minutes to blend, so be patient! If it's not moving, turn the blender off and push down the sides.
  • If you are using a small blender or food processor, you may need to do 2 batches of blending if it doesn't all fit
  • If it's too dry, add a bit more lemon juice or add some water. 
Storage
Freezer - This Strawberry Watermelon Sorbet should be stored in a freezer-safe container in the freezer and will stay good for up to 3 months. Be sure to cover your container with foil if it doesn't have a lid.
*The longer you store it in the freezer, the more likely it is to develop ice crystals so I recommend eating it within a month.
Dietitian Tip
Using fresh fruit is a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth - especially in the summertime when berries and melons are in season! But eating fruit by itself can be boring. Make it more fun and elevate your fruit game with recipes like this one. Keep it in the freezer for an afternoon treat or post-dinner dessert.
