Easy Freezer Fresh Peach Ice Cream Recipe
This homemade peach ice cream is so rich and creamy with a delicious fresh peach taste throughout. Its so easy to make, and has the perfect taste of summer in every bite.
I've had a few people ask if my strawberry ice cream recipe could be easily swapped into a peach recipe, and although I assumed the answer was yes, I figured I had better give it a try myself to see exactly how it worked and if the amounts and proportions were correct using peaches instead of strawberries, and thus this peach ice cream was born.
This ice cream is bursting through with the perfect fresh peach flavor. It's got 2 full cups of peaches in it, giving it that real peach flavor in every bite. It's so creamy and delicious, and tastes like a big bowl of fresh peaches and cream. I don't think you'll be able to resist a second bite, or 10, after you try it. It's the perfect recipe for making the next couple months as all those peaches start getting extra ripe on the trees.
This peach ice cream is a no cook, no egg, non custard based ice cream. But it isn't a no churn ice cream, and does require an ice cream maker to mix your ice cream up and make it so nice and light and creamy. You won't even miss the creaminess of a typical custard based ice cream as this ice cream is super creamy still – and it makes it so easy to throw together.
I use a 2QT ice cream machine. So if you have a 1.5 quart ice cream maker you may need to cut the recipe down, or churn your ice cream in batches.
To make this peach ice cream, you'll need fresh peaches, sugar, heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract.That's it. You only need 5 ingredients and a few steps, and a few minutes (or hours if you want scooped ice cream) later and you've got amazing peach ice cream.
How to make homemade peach ice cream?
Start the night before you want to make your ice cream by putting your ice cream maker bowl in the freezer. You'll want to freeze it for 12 hours or more.
When you're ready to make your ice cream mixture, peel your peaches, remove the pit, and dice them up into small pieces. Mix the peaches with 1/2 cup of your sugar in a medium sized bowl to let the peaches release their juices and help sweeten them up.
Blend the peaches up in a blender or food processor till they are smooth. If you need more liquid for your blender, add in part of your whole milk.
Pour the blended peaches, heavy cream, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl and stir them all together till creamy. Pour the ice cream mixture into your prepared ice cream maker and allow to run according to manufactures instructions.
Serve immediately for super soft ice cream (kind of like a shake) or scoop the ice cream into a 9×5 pan and cover with plastic wrap. Place the ice cream in the freezer for 6 hours, up to overnight.
The ice cream is ever so slightly, a light yellow color – kind of what you'd expect from an old fashioned vanilla ice cream. If you want it more of a peachy color you can add a couple drops of orange or yellow food coloring (or a drop or two of each) to the ice cream mix before churning to give it a little more color.
This peach ice cream is a delicious and perfect way to cool down on a warm summer day. It's refreshing, sweet, so creamy and delicious!
