Indulge in the luscious creaminess and fruity charm of this Gourmet Peach Ice Cream—a dreamy homemade treat that captures the very essence of summer. Made with fresh peaches and a rich, velvety cream base, it’s both refreshing and deeply satisfying.
Ingredients2 lbs ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and chopped 
1 cup granulated sugar 
1 pint half-and-half cream 
1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated milk
1 tsp pure vanilla extract 
2 cups whole milk, or enough to reach the fill line
Instructions1. Macerate the Peaches
In a bowl, combine the chopped peaches with the sugar. Let sit for 20 minutes to allow the juices to release and enhance the flavor.
2. Mix the Creamy Base
In a large bowl, whisk together the half-and-half, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Combine Peaches and Cream
Gently fold the peach mixture into the creamy base, stirring until the peaches are evenly distributed.
4. Prepare for Freezing
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker’s freezer bowl. Add enough whole milk to reach the fill line (about 2 cups, depending on your machine).
5. Churn the Ice Cream
Churn according to your machine’s instructions—typically 20–30 minutes, or until the texture resembles soft-serve.
6. Harden for Scoopability
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours for a firmer, scoopable texture. 
Pro TipsChill the freezer bowl in advance for faster, smoother churning.
For a chunky texture, reserve some diced peaches to stir in after churning.
Store in the freezer for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container.
VariationsWant to switch it up? Try swapping out peaches for other fresh fruits:
