Peach Ice Cream Recipe

To make delicious homemade peach ice cream, start by preparing the peaches. You'll need about 4 ripe peaches, peeled and chopped. Combine the peaches with 1/2 cup of sugar and let them sit for 30 minutes to macerate and release their juices. Once softened, puree the peaches in a blender or food processor until smooth. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of whole milk, 3/4 cup of sugar, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in 2 cups of heavy cream and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Five Reasons Why Ice Creams Are Such a Delight. 

Next, combine the peach puree with the milk and cream mixture, stirring well to ensure everything is evenly incorporated. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes, until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency. Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
