Wash and peel the peaches. Remove the pits and dice the peaches into small chunks.
Place the diced peaches in a medium bowl and add 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. Stir to combine and let the mixture sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the peaches to release their juices.
Using a blender, food processor, or immersion blender, puree the macerated peaches until smooth. For a chunkier texture, you can reserve a few peach chunks to stir in later.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Gently stir the peach puree into the cream mixture until well combined. If you reserved peach chunks, fold them into the mixture at this stage.
Pour the mixture into your prepared ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturerβs instructions. This typically takes 20-25 minutes, depending on the machine.
Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-4 hours to allow it to firm up.
Serve the homemade peach ice cream in bowls or cones, and enjoy the old-fashioned goodness!
