Sorbete de frutos rojos asados

Ingredientes

• 2 lbs fresh berries of choice - hulled if needed and quartered for larger berries like strawberries
• 1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon maple syrup - divided, or more to taste
• juice from 1 small lemon

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350° F (175° C). Put the berries on a large, parchment-covered baking sheet. Drizzle the berries with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and mix to coat. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the berries are soft and beginning to release their juices. Let cool for a few minutes.

2. 2

   Transfer the roasted berries to an upright blender, along with all their juices. Add the lemon juice and remaining ⅓ cup of maple syrup. Blend until smooth. Taste for sweetness and add more maple syrup if preferred. Strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer. Cover and chill the mixture very well in the refrigerator, for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. Remember to put the bowl of your ice cream maker in the freezer as well if needed.

3. 3

   Turn on your ice cream maker and pour the berry mixture in with the machine running. Churn for 20-25 minutes, or according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer the sorbet to a shallow dish. Enjoy right away as soft serve or place in the refrigerator for a few more hours, covered, to harden further. Scoop and enjoy.
