Cantaloupe
Sorbet
- 3 1/2 cups cantaloupe
(about 1 cantaloupe), chunks**
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon angel flaked coconut
3/4 cup low-fat 2% milk
- In food processor, combine
first three ingredients thoroughly. Process until smooth. With
food processor running, add milk gradually. Pour into the freezer
can of an ice cream maker. Freeze according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
- Or, to prepare without
an ice cream maker, pour mixture into an 8 x 4-inch rectangular
freezer container. Cover and freeze for 4 hours or until firm.
(If you prefer an even smoother texture, blend mixture in a food
processor two to three times during freezing.)
- Before serving, let soften
in refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes.
Makes 6 (1/2 cup) servings.
** Variation: Honeydew
melon can be substituted for cantaloupe to make honeydew melon
sorbet.
