Peachy Keen Ice Cream

   


I scored some fresh peaches on sale this week and knew I had to try this recipe.  This is only the second time that I have made homemade ice cream with my new ice cream maker and I really liked this recipe.  I used four medium sized peaches to make this and it was very creamy and peachy but not too sweet.   Hope you enjoy!
