Prepare the Peaches: In a bowl, mix the diced peaches with 1/4 cup of sugar. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to release their natural juices.
Blend the Base: In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining sugar, heavy cream, milk, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Combine and Chill: Gently fold the peach mixture into the cream base. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
Churn the Magic: Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes around 20-25 minutes, transforming the mixture into a lusciously creamy consistency.
Freeze and Enjoy: Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and let it firm up in the freezer for about 4 hours or until it reaches your desired texture.
Serve and Delight: Scoop out the Peach Ice Cream into bowls or cones, and relish in the fruity, velvety goodness. Each serving bursts with the refreshing flavors of summer.
