Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 cups heavy cream, chilled
  • 1 cup whole milk, chilled
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Combine sliced peaches, 1/2 cup sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a bowl and let sit for 30 minutes until a syrup forms.
  2. Blend the peach mixture until velvety smooth and pass the puree through a fine-mesh strainer to remove fibrous bits.
  3. In a large chilled bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, 3/4 cup sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is glossy.
  4. Fold the concentrated peach puree into the cream base until the color is a uniform, pale orange.
  5. For machine method: Churn in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer instructions (usually 20-30 minutes) until soft-serve consistency. For no-machine method: Freeze in a shallow container, whisking every 30 minutes for 3 hours to break up ice crystals.
