Serves 4 |
Raspberry Almond Sherbet
|
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup slivered almonds
- 12-oz pkg frozen raspberries (unsweetened), partially thawed
- 1 cup lowfat (1%) milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 1 tsp almond extract
- fresh mint leaves, optional
|
Preparation:
- Place almonds in a small dry skillet and set pan over medium heat.
- Cook 3 minutes, until almonds are golden brown, shaking pan frequently to prevent burning.
- Set almonds aside.
- In a food processor, combine raspberries (with any liquid from package), milk, sugar, lime juice, and almond extract.
- Puree until smooth and blended.
- Transfer mixture to a metal bowl. Cover with foil. Freeze until slightly firm, but not frozen (about 30 minutes to 1 hour).
- Transfer mixture back to food processor or beat with electric mixer until smooth.
- Fold in toasted almonds.
- Return mixture to freezer and freeze until firm (about 2 hours). For a lighter, airier sherbet, stir every 1/2 hour during second freezing.
- Scoop sherbet into bowls and garnish with mint, if desired.
