Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped apricots, sugar, water, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Pour the blended mixture into an ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for churning, typically for about 20-25 minutes, until the sorbet reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Transfer the sorbet to a freezer-safe container. Evenly sprinkle the graham cracker crumbs over the top of the sorbet, gently pressing them in to stick.
- Cover the container and freeze the sorbet for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
- Before serving, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Enjoy the apricot cobbler sorbet in bowls or cones.
Tips
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the blended mixture in a shallow dish, stirring every 30 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the graham cracker crumbs with a gluten-free variety or almond meal.
