Peach Frozen Yogurt

Unlike some of the other frozen yogurts in this book, I only make this with plain, unstrained yogurt. Since the peach purée is so velvety thick, this frozen yogurt has a lovely consistency when frozen.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes about 3 cups (750 ml)

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds (675 g) ripe peaches (about 5 large peaches)
1/2 cup (125 ml) water
3/4 cup (150 g) sugar
1 cup (240 g) plain whole-milk yogurt
A few drops freshly squeezed lemon juice

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Peel the peaches, slice them in half, and remove the pits. Cut the peaches into chunks and cook them with the water in a medium, nonreactive saucepan over medium heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until soft and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the sugar, then chill in the refrigerator.

    Step 2

    When the peaches are cool, purée them in a food processor or blender with the yogurt until almost smooth but slightly chunky. Mix in a few drops of lemon juice.

    Step 3

    Freeze the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

  2. Perfect Pairing

    Step 4

    Serve Peach Frozen Yogurt with a summertime Mixed Fruit Coulis (page 181).
