I recently learned that fresh
local peaches can easily be transformed into a delicious frozen treat. I used my ice cream maker to make this recipe, and it gave me yet another reason to be thrilled that I bought one just a few months ago. I seriously doubt I will ever buy ice cream (or sorbet) out of a box again. The machine is incredibly easy to use. You literally just flip a switch and 15 to 20 minutes later…voila! Not to mention that you can control exactly what ingredients go into each recipe.
Homemade Peach Sorbet
Ingredients
- 4 peaches
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup, or honey
- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Slice the peaches and remove pits. There is no need to remove the peel.
- In a blender puree the peach slices, maple syrup (or honey), and water.
- Pour the mixture into frozen ice cream maker bowl and follow manufacturer instructions (in my case that meant letting it run for 15-20 minutes). Enjoy!

This was delicious! So yummy and refreshing, and I love that I didn’t need to peel the peaches first. Definitely a keeper!
I made this last night, and today it’s way too hard! I did some research, and it seems that if you add less sugar, your sorbet comes out less scoop-able. I’m surprised that nobody who made this recipe mentioned that..
