Peach Ice Cream


I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and adapted it.  It was a big hit at our house

 2 1/2 pounds fresh peaches - peeled, pitted and chopped (I just use bottled, it’s about 2 quarts)
 1/2 cup white sugar
 1 pint half-and-half cream
 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
 2 cups whole milk or heavy whipping, or as needed
Optional: 1 tsp of almond and 1 tsp. nutmeg
Directions

Puree peaches with the sugar and half-and-half in batches in a blender or food processor.
In a gallon ice cream freezer container, mix together the peach mixture, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla. Pour in enough whole milk to fill the container to the fill line, about 2 cups.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to freeze the ice cream.


Tip: I like to make it a head of time and freeze the ice cream in the freezer for about four hours before serving.

Makes 1 gallon
