The Best Peach Ice Cream

 It may not be peach season here in Michigan yet, but The Peach Truck was just in town and I had an overabundance of Georgia peaches. After trying peaches from The Peach Truck, I knew these perfect peaches would need to get turned into homemade fresh peach ice cream. Not only is this the best peach ice cream recipe, but it is so easy to make! This recipe has no eggs, and I even share the secret for easily removing the skins from the peaches. Whip up a batch of peach ice cream for the sweetest summer ever.

The Best Peach Ice Cream

1-1/4 cups sugar

Directions
1. Prepare your ice cream maker for use.
2. Cut an X in the bottom of each peach.
3. Bring a pot of water to a boil.
4. Add your peaches, and boil for about 45 seconds.
5. Remove peaches from boiling water and place immediately into ice water.
