COMMENT:
During the early summer, when peaches are plentiful, it is not uncommon
to find peach preserves topping a bowl of vanilla ice cream. I am
sure that this combination inspired the following praline ice cream
variation.
INGREDIENTS:
- 3 cups fresh peaches
- 1 cup milk
- 1½ cups sugar
- 2 tbsps lemon juice
- ½ cup Praline Liqueur or Frangelico
- 3 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 3 cups heavy whipping cream
- pinch of cinnamon
- pinch of nutmeg
METHOD:
In the bowl of a food processor, combine peaches, one cup of milk,
one cup sugar, lemon juice and liqueur. Blend until pureed. In a
large mixing bowl, combine peach mixture, eggs, remaining sugar,
two cups milk and whipping cream. Using a wire whisk, whip until
all ingredients are smooth and well blended. Add cinnamon and nutmeg.
Place mixture in a four quart ice cream freezer and freeze according
to manufacturer's directions. Once frozen, place container in your
home freezer for two to three hours for best results.
