Craving something sweet, tangy, and insanely refreshing? This Pineapple Sorbet is your tropical dream come true! Made with just 3 simple ingredients, this sorbet is ridiculously easy and bursting with bright, fruity flavor.
Mix the base ingredients: Pour the can of pineapple along with the juice, lime/lemon juice, and salt to an empty CREAMi™ Pint. Fill only to the max fill line, the entire can doesn’t completely fit. Stir gently to combine.
1, 20 oz. can pineapple tidbits with the juice, 1-2 tsp. fresh lime or lemon juice, Pinch of salt
Freeze: Freeze the pint on a level surface in the freezer, with the lid off, for 24 hours. (freezing with the lid on creates a hump at the top of the ice cream, which can damage the blade, so be sure to leave it off).
Assemble: Remove the pint from the freezer, place it in the outer bowl, and lock the lid on top. Place the bowl assembly on the motor base, twist the handle right to raise the platform, and lock it in place.
Spin it! Select Sorbet. It shouldn’t need another respin, but if the sides are icy, you can scrape down and respin 1x if necessary.
Enjoy: Remove the pint and enjoy right away!

Notes
Leftover sorbet: If you don’t finish the pint, use a spoon to smooth and level out the top and place back in the freezer with the lid. When ready to eat, re-spin the frozen pint on sorbet.
Sweetener: If you choose to use sugar-free canned pineapple, you may want to add a little bit of sugar (or sweetener of choice) when you're mixing the base ingredients together.
Blend before freezing: If you prefer a completely smooth base, you can pour all your ingredients into a blender and blend before adding to your Ninja Creami pint container. I found the recipe worked fine just dumping all the ingredients in straight from the can since the pineapple chunks are so small but if you're worried about the texture or the blades of your Ninja Creami, you can always blend everything up before freezing!
