A no-churn, creamy peach ice cream made with brown butter, fresh peaches, and sweetened condensed milk. This easy recipe requires no ice cream maker and delivers rich, nutty flavor with a smooth, fruity texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) cold heavy cream
  • 1 can (14 oz / 396 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups diced fresh peaches (about 34 medium peaches)
  • 4 tablespoons (57 g) unsalted butter
  • Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter (10 minutes): In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and nutty smelling (about 5-7 minutes). Transfer to a heat-safe bowl to cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the Peaches (5 minutes): Peel (optional) and dice peaches into ½ inch cubes. If using frozen peaches, thaw and drain excess liquid. Toss peaches with a pinch of sea salt.
  3. Whip the Cream (5 minutes): In a large mixing bowl, whip 2 cups of cold heavy cream with a hand or stand mixer until soft peaks form (3-5 minutes).
  4. Fold in Condensed Milk and Brown Butter (3 minutes): Gently fold the entire can of sweetened condensed milk and the cooled brown butter into the whipped cream using a spatula.
  5. Add the Peaches (2 minutes): Fold in the diced peaches evenly, being gentle to keep the mixture light and fluffy.
  6. Freeze (6 hours or overnight): Transfer mixture to a freezer-safe container or loaf pan. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm.
  7. Serve: Let ice cream sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before scooping.

Notes

Use unsalted butter to control saltiness. Keep cream cold before whipping for best volume. Brown butter carefully to avoid burning. Freeze in airtight container with parchment paper on surface to prevent ice crystals. Let ice cream soften 5 minutes before serving. For dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use vegan condensed milk alternative.
