How to Make Peach Ice Cream Homemade
- Begin by placing the freezer bowl of your Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker in the freezer. Let it chill for at least 8 hours to ensure your ice cream turns out perfectly creamy.
- In a small bowl, combine your sliced fresh peaches with freshly squeezed lemon juice and ½ cup of sugar. Allow the mixture to sit for 2 hours.
- After maceration, strain the peaches, keeping the delicious juices. Then, gently mash or puree the peaches.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar with whole milk until fully dissolved. Stir in the heavy cream, reserved peach juices, half of the mashed peaches, and a splash of vanilla extract.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate your peach mixture for 3-4 hours.
- Once chilled, pour the mixture into the ice cream maker. Churn for 20-25 minutes. In the last 5 minutes, add the remaining mashed peaches.
- For a firmer texture, transfer your freshly churned ice cream into an airtight container. Freeze for 2 hours before serving.
Notes
Serve with fresh peach slices or a drizzle of peach syrup on top. Ensure to monitor the freezing process for optimal texture.
