HOMEMADE SOUTHERN PEACH ICE CREAM

HOMEMADE SOUTHERN PEACH ICE CREAM

DIRECTIONS:

Step 1

Place milk in top of a double boiler and bring water to a gentle boil over medium heat.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolks, and ¾ cup of Swerve. Gently whisk in ¼ cup of the hot milk into the egg mixture. Add the egg mixture into the remaining milk on the double boiler.

Step 3

Cook for about 15 minutes, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until mixture is thick enough to coat back of a spoon.

Step 4

Transfer mixture to a mixing bowl and stir in heavy cream, vanilla, and brandy.  Let it freeze overnight.

Step 5

In a separate bowl combine chopped peaches, remaining Swerve, and lemon juice. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Step 6

Drain the juice from the refrigerated peaches, and add juice to ice cream mixture. Place peaches back in the fridge.

Step 7

Add mixture to ice cream maker and follow manufacturer directions. Add peaches to the ice cream when 5 minutes of churning remain. Place the ice cream into a freezer safe container to set for several hours.


Note: If you let ice cream freeze overnight, set the ice cream out for 15 minutes before serving for easier scooping.

Makes 6 servings.
