Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh peaches (peeled and chopped)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Prepare the peaches by washing, peeling, and chopping them into small, uniform pieces. Ensure peaches are ripe and sweet for the best flavor.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped peaches, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth and completely combined, with no large peach chunks remaining.
- Pour the peach mixture into a Ninja Creami compatible container, being careful not to fill beyond the maximum fill line. Leave some space for expansion during freezing.
- Place the container in the freezer for at least 24 hours, ensuring it is completely frozen solid before processing.
- Remove the frozen container from the freezer and insert it into the Ninja Creami machine.
- Select the "Ice Cream" setting and process the frozen mixture. If the result is too icy, use the "Re-spin" function to achieve a creamier texture.
- Once processed, scoop the ice cream into serving bowls immediately. For a firmer texture, return to the freezer for 10-15 minutes before serving.
- Optionally, garnish with fresh peach slices, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a drizzle of honey for added flavor and presentation.
Tips
- Fruit Selection is Key: Choose perfectly ripe, sweet peaches for the most intense flavor. Look for peaches that are soft to the touch and have a deep, fragrant aroma.
- Freezing Matters: Ensure your mixture is completely frozen solid for at least 24 hours. This is crucial for achieving the perfect ice cream texture in the Ninja Creami.
- Texture Troubleshooting: If your first spin results in a too-icy consistency, don't panic! Use the "Re-spin" function multiple times to achieve that dreamy, creamy texture.
- Customize Your Creation: Experiment with add-ins like a sprinkle of cinnamon, a drizzle of honey, or even some crushed graham crackers for extra texture and flavor.
- Serving Tip: For the most luxurious texture, let the ice cream sit for 10-15 minutes after processing, or give it a quick re-spin just before serving.
- Storage Hack: Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container with plastic wrap pressed directly on the surface to prevent ice crystals from forming.
