1-First, prepare the peaches by peeling and slicing them into eighths. This step helps release their natural juices and sets the foundation for the flavor.

2-Then, combine the peaches and sugar in a medium saucepan, cooking over medium heat while stirring until the sugar dissolves and the peaches soften, which takes about 5 minutes.

3-Next, let the mixture cool before pureeing it in a blender or food processor until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract to blend everything together. At this point, covering and refrigerating the mixture for 3 to 4 hours or overnight is key for the best results, as it helps the flavors meld and creates a creamier freeze.

4-Once chilled, pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer’s instructions to freeze it, usually taking around 20-25 minutes.

5-Finally, transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and let it firm up in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours before serving. For dietary adaptations, remember to use plant-based creams if needed.
