Never waste overripe pears again. This delicious pear sorbet is made with just 4 simple vegan ingredients. You don't need to use an ice cream maker. The texture is creamy and silky!
Core and chop the overripe pears and place in a freezer safe container. Freeze overnight, or at least 6 hours.
Place the frozen pears in a food processor, and blend until it is the consistency of icy snow. Add the maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon and continue to blend until it is creamy and smooth.
Transfer to a deep freezer dish and freeze for at least one hour before serving. You can enjoy the pear sorbet right out of the food processor, but the texture will be more like soft serve.
Notes
Feel free to add more spices to your pear sorbet. Some great options are fresh or powdered ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, and cloves. If you don't have maple syrup, you can skip the sweetener, or replace it with another liquid sweetener, like agave, or sugar.OTHER FRUIT SORBET: This method of making fruit sorbet works for many fruits. For the best texture use a creamy fruit like mango, banana (we call banana sorbet "nice cream"), and berries.
