17 Peach Ice Cream and Sorbet Recipes

Peaches hit their peak in the middle of summer, which makes this the ideal stretch for turning them into ice cream, sorbet, and every frozen treat in between. This collection pulls together seventeen ways to put ripe peaches to good use, from Ninja Creami batches to no-churn versions that skip the machine altogether.

Jump to:

Peach season only lasts so long, and freezing that flavor into something scoopable is one of the simplest ways to stretch it past summer. Whether the base is dairy, a plant-based swap, or nothing more than blended fruit, the appeal comes down to ripe peaches doing most of the work.

This roundup covers plenty of ground, from a Ninja Creami Peaches and Cream Ice Cream to a herbal twist in the Basil-Peach Sorbet and a copycat take on the Chick-fil-A Peach Milkshake. Cottage cheese versions, a four-ingredient sorbet, and a no-churn option round out the mix for anyone who wants options beyond a single method.

Top Tips

Choose fully ripe peaches. A peach that gives slightly under gentle pressure will blend smoother and taste sweeter than one still firm from the store shelf.
Peel before freezing. Peach skins turn tough and fibrous once frozen, so removing them first keeps the final texture smooth instead of stringy.
Freeze the base ahead of time for Ninja Creami recipes. Most Ninja Creami methods need the base frozen solid in the pint container for a full 24 hours before spinning, so plan the timing a day ahead.
Add a splash of alcohol for a softer scoop. A small amount of vodka or fruit liqueur, as in the peach whiskey version, lowers the freezing point slightly and helps keep homemade batches from turning rock hard.
Taste and adjust sweetness before freezing. Sweetness varies a lot between peaches, so tasting the base first and adjusting sugar or honey before it goes into the freezer helps avoid a bland result later.
