Print Recipe

A simple, quick, and creamy no-churn ice cream bursting with fresh peach flavor, perfect for hot summer nights and easy homemade delight.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large ripe fresh peaches (about 1 pound / 450g), peeled and diced
  • 2 cups (480 ml) cold heavy cream
  • 1 cup (305g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg, or swap lemon juice for lime

Instructions

  1. Prepare the peaches by scoring a small ‘X’ at the base and blanching them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then plunge into ice water to loosen the skin. Peel and dice into ¼-inch pieces (about 10 minutes).
  2. Place diced peaches in a bowl and gently mash about half with a fork or potato masher to create a chunky puree. Add lemon juice and stir to combine.
  3. Whip the cold heavy cream in a large bowl using an electric mixer or whisk until soft peaks form (3-5 minutes).
  4. Fold sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract gently into the whipped cream. Then fold in the peach mixture until evenly combined, avoiding overmixing.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container, smooth the top with a spatula, cover tightly, and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.
  6. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy.

Notes

Do not over-whip the cream to avoid grainy texture. Use ripe but not watery peaches to prevent icy ice cream. Stir gently after 3 hours of freezing to reduce ice crystals (optional). Let ice cream soften 5-10 minutes before scooping. Variations include adding cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, bourbon, or grilled peaches. Dairy-free version possible with coconut milk and vegan condensed milk.
