Peach Ice Cream
Peach Ice Cream
Step 1: Prepare 3 to 5 peaches:
wash
peel (Optional. Brenda peels off the fruit's skin.)
dice (3/8" cubes), to make:
1 1/2 cups diced peaches
Sprinkle with:
2 Tbsp sugar
Toss together. Refrigerate while fruit macerates, about 30-60 minutes.
Step 2: Strain fruit, retaining liquid in bowl.
Return strained fruit (covered) to refrigerator until time to go into ice cream machine.
Measure liquid. Take note for next step.
Step 3: Make ice cream mixture:
Recommended to use custard ice cream base, but no-cook vanilla is great too.
When making, replace milk with peach liquid from Step 2, substituting 1:1.
Ex: 1/8 cup peach juice, decrease milk by 1/8 cup.
Remember to refrigerate!
Step 4: Churn ice cream. Review Homemade Ice Cream: Methodology for how.
Once it is thickening nicely (~15 minutes into cycle), pour in the refrigerated fruit.
Note: fruit will have likely continued to release juice while refrigerating. Adding up to 2 Tbsp of that liquid will not compromise the outcome of the ice cream.
Finish churning.
Step 5: Transfer frozen ice cream to . . .
