Peel and slice the bananas into 1/2-inch chunks. Place the banana slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Hull the strawberries and rinse them well. Pat dry with a paper towel.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the frozen banana slices, strawberries, silken tofu, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding more maple syrup, 1 teaspoon at a time, if desired.
Pour the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container and smooth out the top with a spatula.
Cover the container with an airtight lid or plastic wrap and freeze for 2-3 hours for a firmer sherbet consistency.
When ready to serve, let the sherbet sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or cones, garnish as desired, and enjoy!
