Go with me on this…
Usually Peach Ice Cream is a very lengthy process, requiring some cooking and major amounts of elbow grease.
I wasn’t in the mood, but I did want homemade Peach Ice Cream – and now I’m sharing the world’s easiest recipe for peach ice cream!
I made this frozen treat in less than five minutes one morning and popped it in the freezer a few hours and we had a delectable treat for dessert that night.
How to Make Peach Ice Cream
I only used three ingredients in this ice cream and we already know one of them is a can of peaches. This might even be already in your pantry as hold-overs from Thanksgiving. Yep, that’s right…evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk and sliced peaches in juice!
Take your sliced peaches, mostly drain them and mash up with the back of a fork or knife in a shallow bowl.
Pour into the already combined evaporated and sweetened condensed milk mixture.
Stir well and pour the mixture into an ice cream container. Freeze for 3-4 hours!
How to Grill Fresh Peaches
Later that evening, I prepped my grilled peaches by splitting them and removing the pit.
I grilled on high heat for a few minutes to char the flesh and begin to bring out the sugars, then placed a single halve into the ice cream bowl.
Top the grilled peach half with a generous scoop of the peach ice cream!
I decided to top mine with a few chopped pecans to add some crunch and texture…the flavors remind me of peach cobbler.
Yum-O!
Here’s the printable recipe for Easy Peach Ice Cream over Grilled Peaches! Enjoy!
Peach Ice Cream over Grilled Fresh Peaches
Ingredients
- 14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
- 12 oz. evaporated milk
- 1 can sliced peaches in juice
- 4 fresh peaches
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- In an electric mixer, combine the evaporated and condensed milk and whisk on high.
- Pour off most of the juice from the can of peaches and place them in a shallow plate. Using the back of a fork or a knife, cut and smash the peaches up. This will release some liquid, which is fine.
- Add the smashed peaches to the milk mixture and mix until combined.
- Place in a container that will freeze well and transfer to the freezer for a few hours.
- When you are ready to serve, remove the peach ice cream from the freezer and let soften for 15 minutes.
- While the ice cream is softening, heat the grill to high. Cut the fresh peaches in half and remove the pits. When the grill is hot, place the peach halves on the grate and char for a few minutes until the fruit has softened and grill marks appear.
- To serve, place a grilled peach half into a bowl with a generous scoop of ice cream.
- Top with chopped pecans and enjoy!
