This refreshing Raspberry Sorbet recipe is made in the Ninja Creami ice cream maker using just 3 simple ingredients. The best part is this frozen treat packs a healthy protein punch with the addition of collagen peptides. It's the perfect homemade sorbet recipe to enjoy on hot summer days!
Make the sorbet base. Add the fresh or frozen raspberries, water, lime juice and collagen powder to a blender or food processor & blend until smooth.
Freeze. Pour the raspberry puree mixture into a ninja creami pint container ensuring you fill only to the max fill line. Place storage lid on securely & freeze for at least 8 hours up to 24 hours.
Make the sorbet. Place the pint container in the outer bowl, then lock the outer bowl lid in place. Place bowl assembly into the ninja creami, locking into place. Power on the ninja creami & select sorbet setting to process.
Respin. Once the sorbet has processed, add one tablespoon of lime juice or a splash of water to the pint, place back into the creami and press the re-spin button.
Serve. Scoop the watermelon sorbet into a dish, cone or glass & enjoy!
Notes
Ninja recommends freezing your creami bases for 24 hours, but I typically freeze mine for 8 and they come out perfect.
Ninja’s instructions state that you cannot use the “respin” feature followed by the “mix in” feature. I ALWAYS respin my dairy free ice cream or sorbet, because it needs this in order to be creamy, and I use the mix in function after with no trouble.
Before respinning, I recommend always adding a little bit more water or juice. Just enough to almost cover the top of the pint container is perfect, about 2-3 tsp. This will help ensure the final result is super creamy.
Storage instructions: Keep the leftovers in the ninja creami pint container & use a spoon to create a level surface with what’s left over. Place the lid back on and store until ready to enjoy again. You’ll need to go through the process again of using the “sorbet” feature, then adding a splash of lime juice & remixing again. Raspberry sorbet will keep in the freezer up to 2 weeks for maximum freshness.
