This easy Peach Nice Cream is loaded with fresh, fruity flavor. And all you need are three ingredients and five minutes to throw it together!
It's been really hot here and all I want to eat are frozen things.
One particularly hot day, I was craving peach sorbet but didn't want to go out to get some, so I made some "desperation sorbet" out of fresh peaches.
And it was good! Really good.
Much better than other things I've made out of desperation, like that spaghetti sandwich I made with leftover garlic bread, spaghetti, and corn when I was in junior high.
This dairy free, vegan-friendly peach nice cream is made with only three simple ingredients. It's so fruity and delicious - you'd never guess it's so healthy and 100% vegan too.
How to Make Peach Nice Cream
Start by cutting two peaches into chunks and freezing them.
Then puree the peaches with ¼ cup of almond milk and a tablespoon of agave syrup (or honey).
That's it - you have a delicious frozen treat in just a few mintues.
The texture is a little bit softer than a sorbet (as you can see), but the taste is exactly like peach sorbet!

Your photos are just breathtaking. I wish I ate like this daily 🙂 Maybe you can come over and cook for me???
Kiersten says
Thank you! And typically I make a meal like this every other day and then the next day, we eat the leftovers. So don't be too impressed. 😉

Your tofu looks amazing and the peach sorbet sounds so good and easy. I might have to try that one out!
Kiersten says
The sorbet was delicious--I really had low expectations for it, but I was surprised. My husband couldn't believe it wasn't real sorbet.
BusyWorkingMama says
MMM! Everything looks good. I think we'd really enjoyed the grilled tofu steaks. And the peach sorbet! I love that peaches are in season.
Kiersten says
I know, I'm buying peaches like crazy lately! Love them. 🙂
Shirley says
That is one gorgeous galette! I think I'll try your sorbet too, though I'll probably include the churning. I've made peach ice cream before, but the cream dilutes the flavor of the peaches.
Kiersten says
I love peach ice cream, but you're right, the peach flavor is definitely faint, especially if it's made with real peaches. This sorbet tastes like real fruit!

Oh this just looks so delicious.

Gosh, look at those gorgeous pictures! That sorbet looks so simple, yet so good! Peaches are on sale right now, and now I know where they are headed...
Kiersten says
Yes, make it now while peaches are in season! 😀 If you get them when they're perfectly ripe, they hardly need any sweetener.
Stephanie @ henry happened says
What a clever idea - I'm sticking all of my fruit in the freezer now! That granita looks yummy too.
Kiersten says
Have you made the "ice cream" by pureeing bananas? That was all over Pinterest a while ago and it's so good! That's how I got the idea to try peaches.
Carol @ Always Thyme to Cook says
It all looks so good. I thought the peach sorbet had a little spice to it when I noticed the red flecks, but then I scrolled down and saw that spicy-sweet pineapple granita. It's right up my alley. Enjoy your weekend!
Kiersten says
Nope, I just kept the peel on it. 🙂 I always hear that's where all the nutrients are in fruits and veggies!
Hope you have a great weekend too!

That peach sorbet looks amazing! I tried to convince my husband to let us stop in GA to buy peaches this week but he was in too much of a rush. I may have to just buy some at the grocery and try this!
Kiersten says
I am on vacation in South Carolina right now and heading to Georgia next--thanks for the reminder to pick up peaches! 😀
Kathy says
I love peaches... you had me with the sorbet recipe!
RJ says
That sorbet looks so refreshing! I've been making pospicles daily here because it has been sooo hot.
Kiersten says
I know, when it's hot out, I swear I could just eat popsicles for every meal and be perfectly happy with that.
Kelly @ Texas Type A Mom says
Yum, yum, yum! I need to try that peach sorbet recipe. I hate getting a craving for a frozen sweet treat and not having anything on hand.
Kiersten says
I'm going to try this with other fruit now too. I always crave fruity, cold things like this on hot days.
Kelly @ Texas Type A Mom says
I made the sorbet tonight and it was SO good and SO easy! My husband even liked it and he's a fan of all things processed and fatty. For some reason the texture did not look like your picture though - I'm thinking my chunks were too cube like?
Kiersten says
Yay, I'm glad you liked it! But what was the texture like? Hmm. It could be a difference in our food processors or how long you froze the peaches vs. how long I froze them?
Kelly @ Texas Type A Mom says
It wasn't as smooth as yours looks - a little gritty. Did you peel your peaches first? It doesn't look like you did in the picture. I've made it twice now (and need to go to the store for more peaches because it's so easy and delicious) and each time I froze them for about 3 hours or so.
Kiersten says
No, I didn't peel mine. Was it gritty like peach fuzz/skin gritty or gritty like ice crystals? If you're using your new food processor, I wonder if it's pulverizing the skin more than mine (which is just kind of tearing it into pieces because it's not as powerful), giving it that grittier texture...

Do you ever sleep? No one could come up with such awesome ideas like this No-Churn Peach Sorbet and not be up 24/7.
Kiersten says
I sleep, I just don't do anything other than working and blogging lately--ha!
