No Churn Peach Swirl Ice Cream

This No Churn Peach Swirl Ice Cream came about because I’m an ice cream lover of the first degree.  While you can always find vanilla ice cream in my freezer for sundaes or root beer floats, I couldn’t resist adding them to plain vanilla no churn ice cream.  

The idea for this Peach Swirl Ice Cream dawned on me when I bought Georgia Peaches to make my Peach Amaretto Jam.   I love peach ice cream but it isn’t offered as much as it was in the past.  So what could be easier than adding it to an ice cream that takes 10 minutes.  

I originally posted this a few years ago and with peaches coming into the markets, it seem like a good idea to remind everyone again. There is a funny story attached to this recipe. One of my sons was visiting and I had this in the freezer. After dinner, he asked what was for dessert, a carry over from childhood when there was always dessert. I told him peach ice cream. His reaction was muted, definitely not excited. He told me peaches weren't his favs but he'd have a little. Well, long story short, a little turned into several more trips to the freezer as he magically turned into a peach lover - or at least a Peach Swirl Ice cream lover.

How to Keep No Churn Ice Cream Scoopable

The one thing that can be problematic with this type of ice cream is that when frozen it can be rock hard.  There’s a couple of things that can be done to avoid this.  

First, if the cream is whipped to a really stiff stage, it will freeze hard.  Whip it until it is medium firm.  The softer the cream is whipped the less hard it will be when frozen.  If the cream is whipped to the soft peak stage, it will freeze like soft set ice cream.  However, I don't recommend that because it melts really, really fast out of the freezer.

Second, the alcohol in a couple of tablespoons of liquor or liqueur will keep the ice cream scoopable.   If all else fails, and you have a rock for ice cream, just leave it out for 15 to 20 minutes and it will soften. 

The Peach Swirl

I have used my Peach Jam flavored with Amaretto for my swirl in my No Churn Peach Swirl Ice Creaml.  While I highly recommend this step, 1 cup of pureed peaches can also stand in.

This No Churn Peach Swirl Ice Cream is so easy it only takes 4 ingredients. It satisfies the love of ice cream and peaches.  If using pureed fresh peaches instead of the Peach Jam, make sure they are very ripe for the best flavor.
