This is better than 5 stars! With only 24 hrs notice of making this ice cream I couldnt find peaches that were super ripe so....I used fresh blackberries! So good! It took about 8 cups of fresh to get the five cups puree (I actually just mashed them with my pastry blender leaving lots of chunks). Any fresh fruit would be awesome. You have to try this.
So rich, thick, and creamy! Definitely better than store-bought! The original recipe fills a one gallon ice cream freezer. Use 1/3 of the recipe to fill a 1.5 quart freezer. I have made it several times, always with rave reviews. I had to substitute evaporated milk once for the whipping cream and it was still delicious!
I usually don't care for fruit ice creams, but this was fantastic. I only made a half batch and it is still a LOT of ice cream! I used splenda instead of sugar to cut down on the calories, and it was really good. Nice peachy flavor.
This is the BEST peach ice cream!!! I usually don't care for peach ice cream but I could not get enough of this. I used Georgia Belle peaches which was a great choice.
Excellent! Only problem was on my part wasn't able to find peaches that were ripe enough. There wasn't a very strong peach flavor. I am curious to see if anybody has tried frozen peaches??
This was really good. My boyfriend and children loved though I thought it to be a bit too sweet. But that aside it was good. Thanks.
This is very rich! And if you put it in a good container it will last for weeks and weeks in the freezer.
Really great flavor and texture! I used almond extract in place of the vanilla. Loved it!
Since I have been getting lots of peaches from my neighbor and a co-worker gave me an ice cream maker I searched and found this recipe. My kids never want to eat peaches but they raved about this ice cream and my husband and I thought it was very good too. Will make it again many times!
I'm fairly experienced at making ice cream so when I read over the recipe it seemed like there was an awful lot of sugar for the amount of cream and half-and-half. I gave it the benefit of the doubt however assuming the peaches must require that extra sugar. But I still reduced it somewhat anyway. Rather than peaches I used mango kiwi (fruits I had on hand) and a smidge of coconut extract and was really looking forward to this! I mixed it up added the cream and half-and-half gave it a taste and was SO disappointed to find it still too sweet for my taste. I had no choice but to add more cream which I knew wasn't going to hurt the ice cream but would indeed affect (weaken) the flavor. Thank goodness I tasted this before I churned it so that I could try to fix it! While this ended up being rich creamy and delicious since I had to dilute the mix with extra cream it was hardly "peachy."
