Try this homemade fresh peach ice cream during peach season this fall! It’s sweet, peachy, creaminess is hard to resist!!!
It is nearly peach season here. I love fresh peaches, especially in desserts and baked goods. This is homemade fresh peach ice cream my son’s favorite. He usually requests it every year for his birthday. I posted this recipe last year but have since then rewritten and simplified it considerably. Now it is less labor intensive and egg free! So give it a try and let me know what you think!
I bring a pot of water to a boil. Boil the peaches for about 45 seconds, remove them from the boiling water and plunge them directly into ice water. After 30 seconds or so I remove the peaches from the ice water and the skins rub right off. Slice the peaches in half, throw away the pit and puree the peaches in a food processor, blender or with and emulsion blender until completely smooth. Stir the peach puree, sugar, heavy cream, half & half, vanilla and salt together. I like to do this in a water pitcher because it makes it so easy to pour into my ice cream maker. This will give you about 5 cups of liquid ice cream.
Pour your liquid ice cream into your ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
This is what my peach ice cream looks like when I declare it ready to be transferred to the freezer. It is the consistency of a soft serve ice cream. For me the churning in the ice cream maker took about an hour. Transfer the peach ice cream to a bucket or bowl to finish freezing in the freezer. The amount of time until the ice cream has frozen adequately depends on the depth of the bowl you use. I usually plan for it to need to be in the freezer 3 to 4 hours before I serve it.

Oh Mindee! How I’m craving a spoonful of this peach ice cream! Peach is my favorite flavor for ice cream. I have half a mind to drive down to Georgia just to get some peaches! Great tip on mixing it up in a pitcher!
