Recipe: Strawberry Yogurt Sherbet

Strawberry Yogurt Sherbet is an easy to make, healthy, quick, cooling, refreshing frozen treat. Add the ingredients in a blender or food processor and sherbet is ready within minutes. And the best part is that no refined sugar is used. I like to use either maple syrup or honey.

Spring Is Here

When I got back from India at the beginning of April, we still had a bit of snow. And summer season had already begun in India. So from the hot to the cold. Took us a few days to adjust to the extreme change in temperature. Spring this year arrived a bit late in Magog. For the past few days we had sunny weather coupled with some humid days. As I write this post, today it has been raining and it is extremely humid. Such weather calls for some frozen treat. That is when my yogurt sorbet recipe comes in handy.

 

 

What Is  A Sherbet?

A sherbet is different from a sorbet. Sorbets are mainly made from fresh juice/puree, sugar and water. Sherbets contain fresh fruit juice or puree, some dairy product and sugar. This results in a more creamier frozen treat compared to a sorbet. Sherbet originates from Turkey, way back during the Ottoman Empire. The popular Middle Eastern fruity sugary ice drink sharbat resulted in a sherbet in Turkey. Generally milk is added to give it a more creamier texture than a sorbet. Over time, many variations of sherbet have been prepared to suit ones palate and dietary needs. The inclusion of dairy doesn’t make the texture of the frozen treat like an ice cream as the amount of dairy added is little comparatively.

 

Sharing This Strawberry Yogurt Sherbet Recipe With Sunday Funday

Camilla suggested we use strawberries to celebrate National Strawberry Month. Perfect timing as slowly fresh strawberries are appearing in the market. When in season and on offer, I like to freeze some so I can use them for sorbets, sherbets, smoothies and baking. I decided to redo an old post for this theme.  Strawberry Yogurt Sherbet was first posted on 13/05/2014.

Ingredients Required For Strawberry Yogurt Sherbet

Strawberries

For this recipe you need frozen strawberries. To freeze strawberries, wash and wipe them gently with a kitchen towel. Hull the strawberries. Layer them in a single layer in a tray or a freezable container. Put them in the freezer . I usually leave them overnight. You can then store them in a ziploc bag. Alternately, buy ready frozen strawberries from the supermarket. We need about 16oz (approx. 450g)

Greek Yogurt

Instead of using milk  I prefer to use Greek Yogurt for this sherbet recipe. Not only is it more healthier but adds a bit of protein too to your frozen treat. Use plain Greek Yogurt and not the flavoured ones as they contain sugar.

Maple Syrup| Honey

Add according to your taste. But to keep it healthier don’t make it too sweet. Generally, strawberries are sweet therefore adds natural sweetness. If they are a bit sour you may need to add a bit more honey or maple syrup.

Lemon Juice

Add a bit of lemon juice for flavour and a bit of zing.
