Homemade peach ice cream is the ultimate treat for summer! With fresh, juicy peaches blended into a creamy base, this dessert delivers a burst of sweet flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

2 pounds fresh peaches, peeled, pitted, and chopped

1 cup white sugar

1 pint half-and-half cream

1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

1 can (12 fluid ounces) evaporated milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups whole milk, or as needed

Instructions

  1. Peel, pit, and chop the peaches. Place them in a bowl and sprinkle with white sugar. Stir and let sit for 30 minutes to macerate.
  2. After 30 minutes, blend the peaches with the sugar into a smooth puree. If desired, pulse a few times for a chunkier texture.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peach puree, half-and-half cream, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until fully incorporated.
  4. Gradually add the whole milk to the mixture until you reach the desired consistency. Add more milk for a softer texture, or less for a thicker base.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover tightly, and place in the freezer.
  6. Stir the mixture every 30 minutes for the first 2-3 hours to prevent ice crystals from forming and ensure a creamy texture.
  7. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until firm.
  8. Scoop and serve in bowls or cones, and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you prefer a chunkier texture, leave some peach pieces intact after blending.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar depending on the sweetness of your peaches.
  • This recipe works well with an ice cream maker if you prefer that method.
  • If using frozen peaches, thaw them before making the puree for the best texture.
