Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by washing and dicing 4-5 ripe peaches into smaller chunks. Place them in a blender with 3/4 cup of granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice. Blend until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peach puree, 1 cup of heavy cream, and 1 cup of whole milk. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Whisk until well blended.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
  4. Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions for about 20-25 minutes.
  5. Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container, smooth the top, seal tightly, and freeze for at least 4 hours.
  6. Scoop the creamy peach ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy!
