Strawberry banana sorbet is a refreshing dessert that is perfect for the summer months. This sweet treat is made with fresh strawberries and ripe bananas, blended together until smooth and frozen to create a smooth and creamy sorbet that is bursting with flavor.

Do you think it’s funny that food blogger’s talk about the weather a lot? I don’t know what it is but during certain seasons you crave different foods and Fall and Winter is soup and comfort food, Spring and Summer is grilled food and cold treats. Maybe that’s why? IDK. Depending on which season it is and when strawberries are available I like to make this Strawberry and Banana sorbet in the Summertime. It’s cheaper than going to Dairy Queen and spending 28 points on a blizzard!

If you are wondering what type of blender I use, I use a Ninja Blender. I was tired of my previous Cuisine Art Blender not crushing ice or blending properly and lately.

One of the great things about strawberry banana sorbet is that it is easy to customize. You can adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, or add other fruits to the mixture to create new and interesting flavors. Some people like to add a splash of orange juice or a pinch of cinnamon to their sorbet for added depth of flavor.

In addition to being delicious, strawberry banana sorbet is also a healthier alternative to traditional ice cream. It is lower in fat and calories, and is a good source of vitamins and minerals.

Is blended fruit on WW more points?

According to WW, sorbet and banana ice cream is still zero points. Want to know why? Find out reading this article. Basic 0 Points Banana Ice Cream.

Smoothies or juice you’re drinking will not promote the same amount of fullness between meals as eating fruit might. Whereas here when you are eating the ice cream with a spoon, you are experiencing the act of eating, and are less likely to over-indulge. - From WW Canada site.

Some tips for keeping sorbets low in points.

Fruit is sweet enough as it is and does not need any extra sugar in my opinion. Sugar can tack on a lot of extra points.

If you want to use fresh fruit and freeze it to make sorbets, fill freezerbags to the top and remove as much air as possible from the freezer bags.

At frozen yogurt places they have all sorts of toppings such as candy, shredded coconut, more fruit, gummy bears, and whipped topping. Stick with fruit for toppings instead.
