James and the Giant Peach Sorbet

Now James didn't have a chance to make sorbet out of the Giant Peach but we let our imaginations wander and came up with this recipe.

You'll need:

• 1 package of frozen peach slices
• 2 tablespoons of corn syrup
• 2 tablespoons of sugar or 1 packet of sweetener
• 1 cup of low fat yogurt
• Some help from an adult or older sibling

Equipment:

• Measuring spoons and cups
• A food processor or blender
• A spatula
• A serving bowls
• A little adult help

1. Put the frozen peach slices into the processor or blender.
2. Add the corn syrup and sugar.
3. Put the lid on food processor or blender and make sure it is on tight.
4. "Pulse" the food processors or blender. That means turn it on, then off in short bursts. Some food processors have a setting called pulse.
5. If the peaches are crowding up on the sides of the food processor and not getting mixed in, turn the machine off and ask your adult helper to please push them down into the mix with the spatula.
6. Add the yogurt.
7. Put the lid back on the processor or blender and use your pulsing technique again, then stop pulsing and let the machine run until the mixture is creamy.
8. Stop the machine again. Make sure the blade has stopped turning.
9. Use the spatula to check that most of the big lumps are gone - there always seems to be one or two that escape the whirlpool effect. You may need to process the sorbet a little more.
10. If you're using a processor, have your adult helper remove the blade before you start to serve. If you're using a blender, you might want to ask for help getting the sorbet out if the blender jar is glass or too heavy.
11. Put the sorbet into individual bowls.
12. The only thing left to do is--enjoy this peachy treat.
