🍑 Seasonal peaches

Summer is a wonderful time for fruit. Peaches, nectarines and berries are all in season and such a treat.

It's always best to local and seasonal fruit, it's at its best, tastes amazing and is usually cheaper too.

Peach season here in the UK starts in July and ends in September, so plenty of time to enjoy this juicy fruit.

🍑 Do you need to peel peaches?

There's no need to peel peaches for this ice cream.

I blend the peaches after they are cooked, so the skin isn't an issue and consequently, it will add to the nutrients and flavour.

Less faff too.

🍦 No ice cream maker needed

One of the most exciting things about this creamy homemade ice cream is you don't need an ice cream maker.

You don't even need to take it out of the freezer to whip it several times.

Just whip the mixture together and pour it into your container and freeze.

That's it!

Super easy homemade vegan ice cream.

🥛 Which type of vegan cream?

You want a thick cream for this type of ice cream.

Look for one that can be whipped, usually a vegan double cream.

I like Elmlea Plant Double Cream.

It whips up nice and thick.

🥫 Vegan condensed milk

The secret to no-churn ice cream is condensed milk.

It thickens the ice cream and makes it super creamy.

And the good news is you can buy vegan condensed milk now, which is made with coconut milk and tastes just as good as the original dairy-based milk.

I usually buy Carnation vegan condensed milk, which sits beside the regular condensed milk on supermarket shelves.

There are other brands out there if you can't find this one.

Use leftover condensed milk

This recipe only uses half a tin of condensed milk.

Here are some ideas for using up the rest.

• Bounty Bars - smaller batch (half the recipe)
• Coconut Ice - It's a little less than the recipe but will still work
• Easy Fudge - half the recipe
• Ice Cream - make another batch of ice cream (list of recipes below)

👩🏻‍🍳 What you need to make this vegan no churn ice cream

Here are the simple ingredients you need to make this peach dairy-free ice cream.

• Peaches - stone removed but skin left on
• Sugar - caster sugar
• Vanilla Extract - not essence
• Double Cream - look for a vegan cream that can be whipped
• Condensed Milk - the vegan version is usually coconut based

See the recipe card below for a full ingredient list and method.

🧾 Variations

Here are a few tweaks you can make to this ice cream.

• Brown sugar - instead of caster sugar
• Raspberries - mix raspberries through the ice cream with raspberry syrup for a peach melba ice cream
• Swirled - swirl the peach puree through the cream but don't mix in for colour-swirled fruity ice cream.
• Cheesecake - add crumbled digestive biscuits (graham crackers), and make sure they are vegan, the Molly's brand in Tesco is suitable for vegans.

🥄 How to make vegan peach ice cream without an ice cream maker

Step-by-step photos. Keep scrolling for the full printable peach ice cream recipe (with full ingredient list and nutritional info).

Step 1 - Cook the peaches

• Wash and halve the peaches, then remove the stone and chop roughly.
• Now pop in a pan, add the sugar and vanilla and cook until soft, with a fruity syrup.

Step 2 - Blend the peaches

• Remove the cooked peaches from the pot and pop in a bowl to allow to cool.
• Blend in a food processor; in a blender; or in a jug with a stick blender until you have a smooth puree.
  • If you don't have any of these, remove the skin from the peaches before cutting and cooking, then you can just mash the cooked fruit.

Step 3 - Make the vanilla base

• Add the cold cream to a mixing bowl and whisk until thick.
• Now add the vanilla extract and whip again to combine.

Step 4 - Add the peach puree

• Add the peach puree to the whipped cream a little at a time (yes those top two photos are back to front) and whisk in.
• Once all the puree is whisked in, pour the ice cream into your container and freeze for 4 hours or overnight.

Step 5 - Serving ice cream

• Finally, you can take the ice cream out and let it sit for a while until it is soft enough to scoop (be patient).
• Pop your scoop into a jug of boiling water to help get a clean scoop of ice cream.
• Eat the ice cream plain; top with raspberries; a drizzle of fruit sauce; sprinkles; or a drizzle of melted chocolate.
• Enjoy!
