📝 Ingredients
Ice Cream Base
- 1 ½ cups ripe peaches, peeled and chopped (fresh or frozen)
- ¾ cup full-fat coconut milk or heavy cream
- ½ cup whole milk or almond milk
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Lavender Honey Syrup
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 tsp dried culinary lavender or 1 tbsp fresh buds
🌸 Be sure to use culinary-grade lavender—English lavender or ‘Munstead’ works best.
📌 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Make the Lavender Syrup
In a small saucepan, bring water and honey to a gentle simmer. Add lavender and remove from heat. Let it steep for 10–15 minutes. Strain and cool completely.
2️⃣ Blend the Base
Add peaches, coconut milk, milk, honey, vanilla, and salt to a blender. Blend until silky smooth. Pour into a Ninja Creami pint container and freeze for 24 hours.
3️⃣ Spin in the Creami
Insert the frozen pint into the Ninja Creami and use the Ice Cream setting. After spinning, scrape down the sides and use Respin as needed for a smoother texture.
4️⃣ Swirl in the Lavender Syrup
Use a spoon to create a tunnel in the center of your ice cream. Pour in the cooled lavender honey syrup and gently swirl it through with a butter knife. Avoid overmixing so the lavender flavor stays distinct.
5️⃣ Scoop & Serve
Serve in chilled bowls or cones, topped with a fresh peach slice or lavender sprig. For an extra treat, drizzle with a bit more honey.
🍑 Bonus: Roast your peaches first for an even deeper, caramelized flavor!
🌿 Tips & Variations
✅ Make it vegan with coconut and almond milk
✅ Add a pinch of cardamom to the base for a chai-inspired twist
✅ Try it with nectarines or apricots if peaches aren’t available
✅ Fold in chopped candied ginger for texture and zing
✅ Turn it into a frozen pie filling with a graham cracker crust
🛍️ Storage & Reheating
🧊 Store leftovers directly in the Creami pint with the lid sealed
❄️ Ice cream will firm up in the freezer—use Respin to revive the texture
📅 Best enjoyed within 5–7 days for maximum freshness and flavor
