  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • fork
  • ice cream maker
  • airtight container

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, combine the diced peaches and granulated sugar.
  2. Gently mash the peaches with a fork, then let them sit for 15 minutes to macerate.
  3. Stir in the heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Chilling and Churning
  1. Cover the mixture and chill thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  2. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Freezing

Notes

For an extra touch, swirl in some peach preserves during the last few minutes of churning. Keep in mind that homemade ice cream is best enjoyed within a week for optimal freshness and texture.
