Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups ripe peaches peeled and diced (about 3–4 peaches)
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Pinch of salt
- 2 large eggs
- 4 large egg yolks
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 cups half and half
- 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon bourbon optional
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine diced peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and salt. Toss and let sit for 20-30 minutes until juicy.
- Take half of the peaches along with their juices and place them in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until they soften and thicken. Remove from heat and let cool. Lightly pulse the mixture in a blender or food processor until mostly smooth, retaining some texture. Set aside to cool down.
- Keep the remaining fresh peaches in the refrigerator to fold in later.
Notes
For a more vibrant peach flavor, use fresh, ripe peaches.
Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your peaches.
If you want a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the bourbon.
