Peach Pie Sorbet or Smoothie Recipe

Merry Christmas!!! I am writing this a few days before Christmas, so I am not writing on Christmas Eve. I hope everyone has their preparations done and are able to enjoy the season with minimal stress. I hope you take the time to rejoice and stop and think about the True meaning of the season.

Here is the latest installment of pie-inspired smoothies. This unintentionally started as a sorbet. Some of the best ideas come from mistakes, right? When I first made the creation, it was so thick, like a sorbet. I offered it to the kids sorbet-like, or I offered to turn it into a smoothie. They all said, “SORBET!”

The Verdict: Now that I have done about 7 pie inspired smoothies, I can tell you that this is the one my kids absolutely loved the best. I think it’s because at first it came out like a sorbet, so more like ice cream. They seriously couldn’t get enough of it!!

I loved how it’s naturally sweetened and doesn’t have any additional sweeteners, but if you’d like, you could easily add a tablespoon of honey or organic sugar.

Have you tried…?
