Peach Ice Cream
3 Large Peaches Sliced
1/4 C Water
Zest of 1 Lemon
1 TBSP Lemon Juice
Pinch of Salt
1/8 TSP Nutmeg
1 13oz Can Sweet Condensed Milk
2 C Heavy Cream
1 C Milk
1. Combine peaches, water, zest, juice, and salt in small saucepan over medium heat. Cook stirring occasionally until peaches release liquid and break down. The liquid will evaporate and mixture will become jammy. Remove from heat and let cool.
2. Puree cooled peaches with a strainer or food processor.
3. In a large bowl combine peach puree, nutmeg, sweetened condensed milk, and milk.
4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until at a soft peak. Fold the cream into peach mixture and put into a freezable container.
5. Cover with plastic wrap or waxed paper directly on the ice cream base and freeze for 6 hours on a flat surface.
6. Serve with whipped cream, fresh peaches, pecan-caramel sauce, or candied ginger sauce.
