PREP TIME:

10 minutes

PREP NOTES:

Cooking time:

4 hours (in the freezer) and 10 minutes (active time)

YIELDS:

4 people

INGREDIENTS:

4 cups watermelon, cubed and seeds removed
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons maple syrup

DIRECTIONS:

1) Start by cutting your watermelon into cubes and removing any seeds. You can use seedless watermelon to make this step easier.

2) Place the watermelon cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely frozen.

3) Transfer the watermelon cubes to a blender or food processor once they are frozen. Add the lime juice and maple syrup. Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times to ensure everything is evenly blended.

4) You can serve the sorbet immediately for a soft-serve texture. For a firmer sorbet, transfer the mixture to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours.
