I’m not sure if there is any food more closely associated with summer than ice cream. It’s cool, refreshing, and there’s a flavor for everyone!
This delicious homemade peach ice cream combines two summer favorites… peaches and ice cream! Fresh, ripe peaches are delicious on their own, but when you combine them with creamy homemade ice cream, you have a really special treat!
If you’ve never made homemade ice cream before, this would be a perfect recipe to start with. This peach ice cream recipe is very simple, but produces such delicious results!
We haven’t had an ice cream maker for several years and I’d been missing homemade ice cream badly! I recently discovered that KitchenAid has an Ice Cream Maker attachment that I can use with my Kitchen Aid stand mixer, so that was a perfect fit! I keep my Kitchen Aid (stand mixer) out all the time, so it’s super simple to just grab the Ice Cream Maker bowl from the freezer and make ice cream any time I want! I have a feeling this is going to be an extra delicious summer! =)
How to Make Homemade Peach Ice Cream
Homemade Peach Ice Cream
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 2 cups milk whole
- 1/4 cup honey warmed slightly
- 6 tablespoons sugar 1/4 cup
- 2 tablespoons sugar additional
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2-3 peaches
Instructions
- Prepare peaches by peeling, and removing the pit. Puree ONE of the peaches (in a blender or food processor) until smooth. Dice the other peach into small pieces (about the size of a pea). Set peaches aside.
- In a large bowl add the cream, milk, honey, and sugar. Whisk a minute or so, until the sugar has dissolved.
- Add vanilla.
- Add peach puree and diced peaches and whisk or stir until well combined.
- Taste for sweetness and if desired, add additional sugar (1-2 tablespoons), then whisk until dissolved.
- Pour ice cream mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the freezing directions.

Do you make homemade ice cream in the summer? What is your favorite flavor? I have a long list of flavors I plan to try in our KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker!
Shopping note – I noticed that currently all KitchenAid attachments (including the ice cream maker) are 20% off (using the discount code on the site).
I bought a KA ice cream maker a couple of years ago, on our trip to the States (I’m from the Netherknds) and I love to make ice cream! I’ll put it in the freezer right away, to make the peach ice cream tomorrow. Thanks for this recipe!
No need to make a custard first?? All other recipes I have tried require that you make a custard first, cool overnight and then put in the ice cream maker. This sounds much easier! Has anyone tested it out yet?
I’ve made this recipe several times now, and it’s super delicious! Often ice cream recipes call for eggs, which need to be heated to a safe temperature, then cooled (as you mentioned). Since this recipe does not call for eggs, the extra steps are not needed.
Glory, that looks SO good! I have been debating getting the KA ice cream attachment … I think you might have convinced me!
Glory, Peach was the very memorable first flavor of homemade ice cream I had as a child, using a crank type maker, & taking a turn trying that crank! So much easier these days, and I own a Krups brand. Glad to know Kitchen Aid makes one that I can add on to the machine I love! I will totally try your recipe, as I have not made peach on my own! Thank you! Nancy
