Naturally sweet – No added sugar needed (but you can add some if you like!).
Light & refreshing – A perfect frozen treat for warm days.

Ingredients

1 can of crushed pineapple, including juice
Optional: 1-2 tbsp sugar, honey, or sweetener of your choice (if you like it extra sweet sorbet)

How to Make Pineapple Sorbet in the Ninja Creami

Blend — Add the entire can (juices included) into your blender.

Pour the pineapple – Pour the blended contents into your Ninja Creami pint container.

Freeze – Place the container in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 24 hours.

Spin it! – Once frozen, insert the pint into the Ninja Creami machine and run the Sorbet function.

Check the texture – If the sorbet texture is crumbly or icy, add 1-2 tbsp of pineapple juice or water and re-spin.

Substitutions and Variations

Make it creamy – Add a splash of coconut milk, vanilla ice cream, or Greek yogurt for a creamier sorbet.
Sweeten it up – If you like it sweeter, mix in honey, maple syrup, or sweetened condensed milk before freezing.
Citrus twist – A little lime juice adds a refreshing zing!
Boost the protein – Stir in vanilla protein powder for a nutritious twist.
Try mix-ins – Add banana, mango, fruit cocktail, or mandarin oranges for extra flavor.

Tips for Success

If your Ninja Creami is crumbly after the first spin, put the pint back into the machine and hit “re-spin” one or two more times until it is the right consistency.
You can add a tablespoon of milk or water to speed this process up too.
Get creative with your mix-ins: Adding in more fruit, coconut, or vanilla ice cream makes such a fun addition for different variations.

FAQs

What do I do if my sorbet is icy or grainy and not creamy?

Simply add a splash of pineapple juice and re-spin in the Ninja Creami! This helps smooth out the texture.

Can I try other sorbets in the Ninja Creami?

Yes! The Ninja Creami works great for mango, strawberry, or mixed berry sorbets. Just follow the same steps with your favorite fruit.

Do I have to blend the ingredients before freezing?

Yes! The Ninja Creami will not blend everything perfectly if you don’t fully incorporate before freezing.

Can I use fresh or frozen pineapple instead?

Yes, but keep in mind that fresh pineapple has less moisture, so you may need to add pineapple juice or re-spin for a creamy texture.
