Homemade Peach Ice Cream – Keto Recipe

Can something made with peaches possibly be keto friendly? You bet and this homemade peach ice cream proves it. It’s sweet and creamy, and the perfect dessert on a hot summer night.

I know what’s going to happen here. Trust me, I am really good at predicting the future. Here’s what’s going to happen. Someone is going to quickly glance at this recipe for keto peach ice cream and feel that it’s their job to tell me that it’s not keto.

To them I say… sorry, suckers! You are missing out. Because surprisingly, peaches are not that high in carbs, and this keto ice cream recipe is so heavenly and so utterly perfect for summer. It’s like being a kid again, when ripe juicy peaches were gracing every table all summer long.

It’s pure creamy peach heaven and it’s a throwback to simpler times. It’s worth it, believe me.

Can you have peaches on a keto diet?

I really do hate the “But that’s not keto!” comments. Because it’s incredibly limiting and incredibly shortsighted.

If you follow a specific keto program that stipulates that you avoid certain foods, that’s all well and good. If it works for you, I say go for it. But please remember that the overarching concept of a keto diet is simply one that keeps you in ketosis. That’s it, plain and simple.

Which means that cetain foods that aren’t super low carb can sometimes still be used in small quantities. To add a bit of flavor, perhaps, or to add an air of authenticity.

But it was a revelation to me to discover that peaches aren’t actually that high carb compared to many other fruits. It was actually a reader who pointed this out to me and it was like the heavens opened up and the sun shone down. Hallelujah!

Compare the same amount of peach to some other fruits and you will see what I mean (keep in mind these are TOTAL carbs, not NET):

Per 100g, peaches have only 10g of carbs.

100g of blueberries have 14g of carbs. And blueberries are often considered acceptable on keto.

100g of strawberries have 8g of carbs. 

100g of raspberries have 12g of carbs.

Did I just blow your mind or what?

That said, I am not going to sit down and eat a whole peach. A medium peach has about 14g of carbs and being a diabetic on a keto diet, that isn’t going to do me any favors. It would probably send my blood sugar up and kick me out of ketosis.

But mix a little peach puree in with heavy cream, egg yolks, and other high fat, keto inducing foods, and it’s suddenly a whole new ball game. Each generous serving of this keto peach ice cream has only 6.5 grams of carbs.

How to Make Keto Peach Ice Cream

Use an ice cream maker: This is a churned keto ice cream, so it does require an ice cream maker. If you have the kind that requires you to freezer the canister for 12 hours, don’t forget to do so!

I get asked a lot for ice cream maker recommendations. I have the big compressor model now, which I love because I don’t have to freeze the canister. But I had the basic Cuisinart ice cream maker for years and it worked beautifully.

Use ripe peaches. You will need about 3 medium size peaches that are quite ripe, so that the delicious juicy peach flavor comes through. The flesh should yield a fair bit as you gently squeeze the peach, but it shouldn’t feel mushy. Don’t get rock hard peaches, they simply won’t have enough flavor.

This ice cream has a nice light summery peach flavor. If you want a more intense peach flavor, consider adding a little of this peach flavoring.  It’s intense so a little goes a long way!

Macerate the peaches. Macerating fruit helps it release its juices. Normally one would do this with sugar but we don’t use that junk! I used Bocha Sweet and lemon juice. Then you can mash the peaches to a fine pulp, with a few small bits in it for texture.

Make a custard base: This is an old fashioned ice cream recipe using egg yolks, heavy cream, and a little almond milk (use hemp milk for nut-free). The process is similar to creating a custard, wherein you temper the egg yolks with a little hot cream, and then add the yolks back into the pot and cook until thickened slightly.

Use a water bath: You can’t put the hot ice cream base straight into an ice cream maker, even a compressor model, as it won’t freeze properly. It has to chill for at least 3 hours, but you can help speed up the process a bit by putting the custard into a bowl set over an ice bath for 10 minutes.

Two different sweeteners are important: I feel like I am starting to repeat myself a lot here, as I say this in most of my newer ice cream recipes. But a combination of Bocha Sweet (or xylitol, or allulose) and Swerve works best for ice cream that stays scoopable and soft.

A little vodka helps too. You can skip this but it helps reduce iciness. And since peaches have a high liquid content, anything that helps reduce iciness is a good thing!

So creamy and delicious, and so reminiscent of summers gone by, this peach ice cream recipe is truly an amazing keto treat!

How to store homemade peach ice cream

Keto ice cream like this can be stored for several months. The best way to keep it fresh and without any freezer burn is in an airtight container. Sometimes I simply use tupperware with a tight fitting lid. I also have a good pyrex container glass container with a nice tight fitting lid on it.

But I also have two sizes of these Tavolo ice cream tubs. The large size is like a regular quart ice cream container. Then there are little individual sized ones, if you want to store your ice cream with built in portion control.

Equipment

  • Ice cream maker

Ingredients

  • 400 grams ripe peaches, peeled and sliced about 2 1/2 to 3 medium peaches
  • 1/3 cup Bocha Sweet (or xylitol)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond or hemp milk
  • 1/3 cup Swerve Sweetener
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp glucomannan powder (or xanthan gum)
  • 2 tbsp vodka (optional, helps reduce iciness)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Set the sliced peaches in a bowl and toss with the Bocha Sweet and the lemon juice. Let sit 30 minutes to macerate and release their juices, then mash up with a potato masher or large fork. They should be well mashed but a few small bits and pieces are okay.
  • Set a medium bowl over an ice bath and set aside.
  • In a large saucepan over medium low heat, combine the cream, almond milk, and Swerve. Bring to just a simmer, stirring frequently to dissolve the sweetener.
  • In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the salt until smooth. Slowly pour about 1/2 cup of the hot cream into the yolks to temper, whisking continuously. Then slowly pour the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan, whisking continuously.
  • Continue to cook, whisking continuously, until the mixture reaches 170F on an instant read thermometor, and/or thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and quickly pour into the bowl over the prepared ice bath.
  • Let cool 10 minutes, then whisk in the mashed peach puree. Whisk in the glucomannan. Refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
  • Whisk in the vodka and vanilla extract and pour the mixture into the canister of an ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer's directions. Once churned, transfer to an airtight container and freeze another hour or two, until firm enough to scoop.

Notes

This recipe makes almost 1 1/2 quarts of ice cream, once it's properly churned. So it really could be divided into 10 servings!

      Yes! You blew my mind!! Peaches?? I ran to the store to get some and made this right away. I used ertthritol/Monk fruit combo and Swerve. Xanthan gum because I haven’t purchased glucommanan, followed the recipe other than that. It truly is the best of all the ice cream recipes I’ve tried. My husband said, “It’s outstanding!” It made so much it almost overflowed my ice cream machine! A few small pieces of fresh peaches when serving makes it especially delicious.

      Thanks again Carolyn, this is a real winner.

        This was my first time making ice cream. I have the Cuisinart 1 &1/2 Quart. Mine did overflow and ran down the outside of the freezer bowl. I had it on for the 20 minutes the instruction book said. Did I do something wrong? It is in the freezer now. Can’t wait to taste it!

            Carolyn, The ice cream turned out awesome. I am so happy that I can make low carb ice cream now. Can’t wait to try the other recipes. I did have one thought about my overflow. How long do you have the machine on? I was wondering if I had it on too long???? Or maybe I had too many peaches and juice? I calculated 400 grams to equal 14 ounces. for the peaches. When I left the room it wasn’t overflowing and it was overflowed when the timer went off.
            Thansk for any input!

When fresh peaches are in season I think you have to adapt to keep this lifestyle sustainable. I will definitely try this recipe too!

    Well Carolyn, you just made my husband very happy. He LOVES peaches, and was quite sad when he thought he couldn’t have another peach. We are both diabetic and trying to do keto. I do have a question though. I read on some site (can’t remember where now) that xylitol cause higher spikes in blood sugars. Now I know you carefully do your research, so do you have any idea why they would say that? I have to go back to where you explain ice cream sweeteners again. 🙂 Thank you for all your hard work for us. God bless you.

      Xylitol can spike some diabetics, yes. It doesn’t spike me high but I find I go higher with it than I do with just erythritol. Do keep in mind that diabetes is SO individual, something that spikes you may not spike others and vice versa.

      But for a softer, not rock hard ice cream, you really need something else. Bocha Sweet does not seem to spike me at all.

    It’s the fructose in the peach that makes it not keto. Also consider that one peach alone is half of a daily intake of carbs on keto.

      Um… did you read the part where I said I wouldn’t sit down and eat a whole peach in one sitting? But that worked into a recipe that includes plenty of healthy fats, it’s fine. There are no keto/non-keto foods. If you chose to follow a program that eschews fruit like this entirely, have at it. But don’t try to tell other people how to live their keto life.

    I see you listed glucomanaan as a first choice over xanthum gum. Is there a difference in outcome? I know xanthum gum is used as a binder in keto recipes but, to me, it sometimes makes the texture a bit, well, gummy. I wonder if gluccie would be better. Haven’t invested in it but wwould if it is an improvement. I like it when you discuss various ingredients and keep us apprised of new ones. Thanks.

      Well, I used to use xanthan all the time and I still do at times but I am finding glucomannan is a good replacement. Xanthan can give things a bit of a slimy feel. Glucomannan thickens without that.

    What a great recipe and thank you for the explanation on peaches and carbs. I made this yesterday but realized that I only had erythritol, no xylitol based sweetener. I understand the need to mix the sugar types so I grabbed coconut sugar, hoping it would work. The color isn’t pretty but the cooked custard tastes pretty good. I’ll churn today. Curious, though, what your thoughts are on my substitution? Thanks again for your recipe and a taste-chance for some sweet moderation!

        Thanks for your reply. I compared the carb count of the coconut sugar to xylitol. Both are 4 grams per teaspoon. Am I misunderstanding something? The ice cream turned out quite well, although I’d say that the coconut sugar’s flavor overwhelmed the peaches. It was quite tasty, the texture is beautiful but it tasted more like coffee ice cream. That had to be the coconut sugar! I’m ordering the Bocha Sweet and will try it again. Even our littles loved it. Thanks, again, for a great recipe and for sharing your knowledge.

          Yes, you are missing something. Xylitol is a sugar alcohol and doesn’t affect blood sugar as much, whereas coconut sugar has high impact on blood glucose.

          Erythritol is the best sugar alcohol because it doesn’t impact blood sugar at all. Bocha Sweet doesn’t seem to either, Xylitol does a bit, but coconut sugar is really just sugar.

      If by “monk fruit” you mean Lakanto, then no. It’s mostly erythritol so calling itself a monk fruit sweetener is very misleading! You need Bocha Sweet (not new, been on the market for years), allulose, or xylitol.

        I LOVE this recipe. I’ve made it twice now in the last week. In case it helps anyone, I used 1/4 tsp pure monk fruit (not Lakanto) plus 1/3 c Gentle Sweet. I mixed those two together, added about half to the peaches whiles they sat, and added the rest during step 3. It worked out really well and is a new family/friend favorite. Thanks for all the time you put into your amazing recipes!

      The recipe calls for 1/4 tsp salt. THe steps do Not list salt. Is salt needed and if so where in the steps do you add it?

        Please read step 4 carefully because the salt is indeed listed in the instructions.

    I made this today. I subbed 1/3 cup Gentle sweet on the peaches and 1/3 cup Gentle sweet in the heavy cream. And I used 1 Tbls glycerin in place of the vodka. It turned out so smooth and creamy! It’s a hit with the family!

          One reason to reconsider Torani Peach Syrup (delicious though it may be) is to consider the carbs.
          The sugared version has 17 g carbs per oz and the sugar-free Torani is sweetened with Sucralose/Splenda brand. So . . . neither version plays friendly with blood insulin and the regular version might also spike blood glucose. Just want to make sure to calculate the carbs the syrup adds to the recipe to see if that works with your plan. (Nutrition facts for the sugar free Torani Peach Syrup are here https://shop.torani.com/Sugar-Free-Peach-Syrup/p/TOR-372558&[email protected]).

    Hi Carolyn,

    I’m making this today (yay!) and just curious why you’ve switched from using xanthan to glucomannan in your ice cream recipes? I know you are constantly refining your processes so I’d just wondered if you’d discovered something better about the latter’s performance or on blood sugar.

    Thanks!,
    Linda

      She explained to a previous comment, that xanthan gum has a tendency towards a bit of a slimy texture, and glucomannon only thickens, without the slimey texture…

    My husband was diagnosed diabetic this past spring. He adores ice cream and any frozen dessert but besides being horribly expensive it seems that most if not all commercial “no sugar added” ice creams have maltodextrin. As you know, this is not a diabetic friendly ingredient. So I bought an ice cream freezer and started trying to make sugar free ice cream myself. They tasted fine, as long as you remembered to take the ice cream out of the freezer about an hour before you actually wanted it because they were all as hard as a rock. Except for this one, this one is AWESOME! Wrong time of year for fresh local peaches, but it seems that thawed frozen works just as well. Substituting thawed frozen strawberries also works well, in fact he likes that even better. Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe.

    After successfully making your fabulous vanilla ice cream I was so surprised to see a peach version! We had a banner year for peaches this year and I canned quite a bit of jam using splenda (I know but I’m not diabetic, just want less sugar). Could I use some of that jam in place of macerating peaches?

    I’ve been Keto for 7 Years and I just have to say that I agree with the author of this recipe. There are so many variables on if you can eat peaches or anything that’s considered a carb. For instance, I fast daily and eat one meal a day. I’m way beyond fat adapted and having a peach here and there will not hurt me. Put into perspective, if the ratio of carbs is low enough compared to your other macros, then you will be ok. Just don’t eat carbs every day, you’ll see that you can tell when you’ve overdone it. If you have, just throw in a longer fast period. Find what works for you. My hubby and I switch it up every once in a while and have a complete carb dinner. We might even do a month of carnivore 2x a year.

    OH EMM GEEE!!!! This stuff is amazing! A neighbor gave me some over ripe peaches that needed to be used right away. In my pre-keto days I would have just eaten them but now I was looking for a way to incorporate them into a keto-friendly dessert. When I found your ice cream recipe I knew this was the recipe I had to make. And I was not disappointed. It tastes so fresh and juicy, just like a bright summer day. I had to hide some in the back of the freezer so I can keep it for myself – I don’t want to shar this with my honey!

    Made this today using BochaSweet and Allulose as always because I just can’t use erythritol. It’s delish! I under churn so it’s softer going in the freezer but stays soft for days. Ice cream doesn’t last long here. Thank you for using glucomannan instead of xanthan!

    I’ve been living the high fat-low carb lifestyle for about 4 years now. I’ve been wanting coffee or cinnamon ice cream for a while and I can’t find it gluten free. After seeing your peach ice cream recipe I purchased the 1-1/2 qt compressor Cuisinart ice cream/gelato maker and made ice cream for the first time. (It did run out of the handy window all over the ice cream maker, there isn’t a way to lock the little window.) I really was expecting the first time to be a flop, but your recipe is amazing! So now I need to tinker with it. It’s a little rich for me, like eating butter, can I substitute 1/2n1/2 for the cream? Also, you mentioned to someone who wanted to make just vanilla to add another cup of cream. So how would I make cinnamon or coffee ice cream, these are dry ingredients? In the coffee ice cream, could I use Kahlua instead of vodka (it doesn’t have an ingredient list)?

      yes, you can do half and half. Or you can use some almond milk in place of some of the cream. I find it strange that it overflowed your maker because I have that EXACT model and never had an issue. You want to make sure the liquid isn’t higher than the second bar of the churning arm… but this amount shouldn’t be.

      For vanilla, please search my blog as I have an excellent vanilla ice cream recipe.

        I could see the top of the mixing bar, it was clear of the custard. I used 3 peaches and that was the only change I made to the recipe, since the recipe called for 2-1/2 to 3. If there hadn’t been a window, I think the ice cream would have all stayed in. I’ll search for your vanilla ice cream but I keep getting diverted by lemon bars, lemon curd, and the list goes on. You’ve got a lot of great recipes!

    The best custard-based keto ice cream! Have made it with peaches, fresh local strawberries – all cosmic. I’m going to try making plain vanilla ice cream and leave out the fruit. Maybe throw a vanilla bean in with the hot cream. Is there any reason to think this base wouldn’t work for plain vanilla? Too thick?
