Create this refreshing citrus fruit sorbet using coconut cream and juice for a unique homemade dessert<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n If you find yourself with some extra citrus on hand this summer, consider making creamy lemon or orange sorbet in fruit cups! This treat is ultra-refreshing and has just a few easy ingredients.<\/p>\n What a fun and creative way to turn fresh lemon or orange juice into a special dessert all will love. It reminds me of those popular frozen sorbet fruit cup desserts<\/a> you can sometimes get from Costco or Sam’s Club.<\/p>\n We first spotted this lemon cup dessert idea from Instagram user Mamiawishappy<\/a>, and I was inspired to try it with some modifications. I use coconut cream for a non-dairy route and granulated monk fruit as a sweetener. This combo turned out super delclious. She added non-flavored gelatin, and I skipped that part, but feel free to experiment using it!<\/p>\n Technically, due to the added cream, I think this idea would fall more into the sherbet category. Traditionally, sorbet has just fruit and sweetener, while sherbet has heavy cream or buttermilk included. Since I opted for a dairy-free coconut cream, it could fall into a gray area. Whatever you decide to call it, it’s delish!<\/p>\n Since there are no dairy or eggs, sorbet is naturally vegan. This recipe is also vegan if you opt for coconut cream<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n yield: 8 SERVINGS<\/span><\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\tprep time: 30 MINUTES<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\tcook time: 4 HOURS\t\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\ttotal time: 4 HOURS 30 MINUTES\t\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Lemon juice and coconut cream sorbet served in lemon cups.<\/i><\/p>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t1<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n Slice the lemons in half. Use a serrated grapefruit spoon to scoop out the insides in one piece. Use a manual hand juicer<\/a> to separate the juice. You’ll need about 1\/2 a cup of fresh juice. Set aside the lemon halves to use as bowls.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n Add the juice to a small saucepan on the stove and heat to medium heat. Add the granulated sweetener, and whisk in the coconut cream and the vanilla extract. Simmer on low for about 5 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t3<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n Pour the mixture into a glass measuring cup with spout. Carefully fill the lemon cups with the mixture on a sheet pan. Place the sheet pan in the freezer making sure it’s level so they do not tip over. Freeze for a few hours or overnight. Let sit out for 15 minutes to thaw a bit before eating if frozen solid.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \t\t\t\t\tBrought to you by Hip2Save.<\/i><\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n Try using small oranges or tangerines to make orange sorbet!<\/p>\n I cannot decide which flavor was better. The lemons were tart, and these Cara Cara oranges are sweet and over the top delclious. If you’re looking for a unique treat to make this summer, give this idea a whirl and let us know how your family likes it!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
