When nectarines are in season at their sweet, juicy peak, we treat ourselves to this wonderful homemade ice cream. The fresh-fruit flavor and hint of almond make it very special. Peaches are a good substitute in this recipe.—Edna Hoffman, Hebron, Indiana
Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup sugar
1-1/2 cups mashed fresh nectarines (about 6 medium)
1-1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon almond extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat milk to 175°; stir in sugar until dissolved. Cool quickly by placing pan in a bowl of ice water; stir for 2 minutes.
