Ingredients
- Peaches
- 4, pitted and chopped
- Apricots
- 4, pitted and chopped
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
- Whole milk
- 1 cup
- Heavy cream
- 2 cups
- Granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup
Instructions
- Begin by washing and pitting the peaches and apricots. Chop them into smaller pieces for easier blending.
- In a blender or food processor, puree the chopped peaches and apricots until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, reserve some fruit pieces to fold in later.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the fruit puree with granulated sugar, heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Stir well until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
- Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Once churned, if desired, fold in the reserved fruit pieces for added texture.
- Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until it is firm enough to scoop.
- Serve the peach and apricot ice cream in bowls or cones and enjoy the refreshing burst of summer flavors!
Tips
- For an extra creamy texture, chill the mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream.
- Feel free to experiment with other fruits like strawberries or mangoes for a delightful twist.
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow dish and stir every 30 minutes until it’s frozen, about 3-4 hours.
