Ingredients

• 4 large ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
• 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Juice of half a lemon (to brighten flavors)
• Pinch of salt

Equipment

• Ninja Foodi Blender or Ninja Foodi Ice Cream Maker attachment
• Mixing bowl
• Knife and cutting board
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Freezer-safe container for storing ice cream
• Spatula

Instructions

1. Prepare the peaches: Start by peeling your peaches. The easiest way is to blanch them in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer immediately to an ice bath to loosen the skin. Slice the peaches and remove the pits.
2. Blend the base: Place the sliced peaches, heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt into your Ninja Foodi Blender. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
3. Chill the mixture: Pour the blended peach cream into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. This step enhances the texture and flavor.
4. Freeze the ice cream: If you have the Ninja Foodi Ice Cream Maker attachment, pour the chilled mixture into the ice cream bowl and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes. If you don’t have the attachment, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours to prevent ice crystals.
5. Final freeze: Once churned or sufficiently frozen, cover the ice cream and freeze for an additional 2 hours to firm up.
6. Serve and enjoy: Scoop the creamy peach ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy immediately. For softer ice cream, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping.

Tips & Variations

“For the best peach flavor, always use ripe, in-season peaches. If fresh peaches aren’t available, frozen peaches work well too—just thaw them before blending.”

• Add spices: A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can add warmth and depth to the flavor.
• Dairy-free option: Use coconut cream and almond milk instead of dairy cream and milk for a vegan-friendly ice cream.
• Mix-ins: Fold in chopped toasted almonds, white chocolate chips, or swirl in honey before freezing for extra texture and flavor.
• Simplify for smoothies: Use the blended base as a delicious peach smoothie by skipping the freezing step.
• Make peach sorbet: Reduce or eliminate the cream and increase lemon juice for a lighter, fruity sorbet.
