Homemade Ice Cream Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 fresh (ripe peaches)
- 1 ½ cups Whole milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 egg yolks
- 1¼ cup sugar
- 1¼ cup whipping cream
- lemon juice (½ of a whole lemon)
Instructions
- Bring the milk to a gentle simmer in a medium-sized saucepan.
- While keeping an eye on the milk, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, and ¾ cup sugar in a bowl.
- Gently whisk in ¼ cup of the warm milk, then return the egg mixture to the saucepan.
- Keeping the flame low, cook, stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon, about 15 minutes.
- Transfer mixture to a bowl, and fold in the whipping cream. Refrigerate until cold.
- Dice the peeled peaches, then add the remaining sugar and the lemon juice. Refrigerate for two hours.
- Drain the peach juice into the cream mixture, mix, and pour into the ice cream maker.
- Process until the mixture starts to set and add the diced peaches.
- Continue to process a few more minutes to blend the fruit and the cream mixture, then freeze until ready to enjoy.
