Instructions:
- If using fresh passion fruits, cut them in half and scoop out the pulp. Measure out ½ cup (120g) of the pulp. If you have pre-packaged passionfruit pulp, measure the same amount.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the passionfruit pulp and 1 cup of powdered sugar (160g).
- Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved in the passionfruit pulp.
- In a separate bowl, pour 1 cup of heavy whipping cream (230g).
- Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer, whip the cream until it reaches soft peaks. This should take about 2-3 minutes on medium speed.
- Gently fold in 1 cup of Greek yogurt (240g) into the whipped cream. Use a spatula to carefully combine, ensuring that you maintain the lightness of the whipped cream.
- Gradually add the passionfruit and sugar mixture to the whipped cream and yogurt mixture.
- Gently fold the mixture together until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and you have a uniform, smooth mixture.
- Pour the sherbet mixture into an airtight, freezer-safe container.
- Smooth the top with a spatula to ensure even freezing.
- Place the container in the freezer.
- Let the sherbet freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until it is firm. For best results, leave it to freeze overnight.
- Before serving, allow the sherbet to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to make scooping easier.
- Scoop the sherbet into bowls or cones and enjoy your refreshing passionfruit sherbet!
Tips:
- Use fresh passionfruit for the most vibrant flavor. If fresh passionfruit is not available, you can use high-quality passionfruit puree.
- Chill the mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream to help it reach the desired consistency more quickly.
- Make sure to fold the whipped cream gently into the yogurt mixture to maintain the light and airy texture.
- For a smoother sherbet, strain the passionfruit to remove seeds.
- Allow the sherbet to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for easier scooping.
