Fresh Peach Sorbet

Ingredients

  • 4 cup peeled, pitted, sliced ripe peaches (about 2 pounds)
  • 2 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/3 cup bottled lemon juice

Instructions

(Makes 7 half-pint jars). In blender or food processor container, pure peaches. In large saucepan, combine sugar, orange juice and bottled lemon juice. Over medium heat, cook and stir until sugar dissolves; remove from heat. Stir in pured peaches. Pour peach mixture into 13x9-inch baking pan; freeze untill firm. Remove 1/2 of the mixture from the freezer. In blender or food processor container, blend half of the frozen peach mixture until light and fluffy, aproximately 1 minute. Spoon mixture into half-pint jelly jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at the top. Wipe jar tops and threads clean. Place lids on jars; screw bands on firmly. Replace in freezer. Repeat with remaining peach mixture. Sorbet is ready to eat when firm. Microwave Pure peaches as above. In a 4-quart microwave-safe dish, combine sugar, orange juice and bottled lemon juice. Cook on 100% power (HIGH) 5 to 8 minutes, or until sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally. Proceed as above. Microwave ovens vary in wattage and power output; cooking times may need to be adjusted. To easily peel peaches, dip in boiling water to loosen skin (30 seconds to 2 minutes), then dip in cold water and slip off skins.
