Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium ripe peaches
- 0.333 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup water
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1. Begin by washing the peaches thoroughly under running water. Peel the peaches and remove the pits.
2. Chop the peeled peaches into small chunks and place them into a blender or food processor.
3. Add the granulated sugar, water, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to the blender with the peaches.
4. Blend the mixture until it is completely smooth and there are no chunks remaining. This should take about 1–2 minutes.
5. Pour the peach puree into a shallow, freezer-safe container. Cover the container tightly with a lid or plastic wrap.
6. Place the container in the freezer and let it freeze for 2–3 hours, stirring the mixture with a fork every 30 minutes to break up any large ice crystals and achieve a smooth, icy texture.
7. Once the peach ice has fully frozen and reaches a scoopable consistency, serve it in bowls or glasses. Optionally, garnish with fresh peach slices or mint leaves for presentation.
8. Enjoy your homemade Peach Ice immediately or store any leftovers in the freezer for up to 3 days.
