Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Frozen Peach Slices: Using frozen peaches makes this recipe super easy! If you can’t find frozen ones, you can freeze fresh peach slices yourself. Just peel, slice, and freeze them on a baking sheet before transferring to a bag. You could also use other fruits like mango or berries for a fun twist!
Sweetened Condensed Milk: This ingredient adds creaminess and sweetness. If you’re looking for a lighter version, unsweetened coconut milk can be a good alternative, but you might want to add a bit of sugar or a natural sweetener to balance out the flavors.
How Do I Get the Right Creamy Texture?
Getting that smooth and creamy texture is key to this sherbet. Here’s how to do it right:
- Ensure your peach slices are fully frozen. Soft or thawed peaches won’t blend well.
- Blend the peaches in a high-speed blender or food processor. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of milk to help it along.
- When adding sweetened condensed milk, blend until completely combined. The mixture should be smooth and creamy—no lumps!
- Make sure to freeze in a flat, even layer in your container for quicker freezing and easier scooping.
Easy 2 Ingredient No Churn Peach Sherbet
Ingredients:
- 4 cups frozen peach slices (about 2 large peaches)
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
How Much Time Will You Need?
This delicious peach sherbet can be prepared in about 10 minutes! However, remember to plan for at least 4 hours of freezing time to get that perfect scoopable texture. So, in total, you’ll be looking at roughly 4 hours and 10 minutes.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Blend the Peaches:
Start by placing the frozen peach slices in a food processor or a high-speed blender. Blend them for a minute or two until they break down into a creamy texture. You may need to pause to scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well combined. Keep blending until it looks smooth and delicious!
2. Mix in the Condensed Milk:
Once your peaches are perfectly blended, pour in the whole can of sweetened condensed milk. Blend again until the mixture is fully combined. This will help create a super creamy belle that’s ready for freezing!
3. Freeze the Mixture:
Next, scoop the peach mixture into a freezer-safe container. Smooth out the top with a spatula, pop a lid or plastic wrap over it, and place it in the freezer. Let it freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm. The longer it sits, the easier it will be to scoop!
4. Serve and Enjoy!
Take the container out of the freezer when you’re ready to enjoy some refreshing treat. Scoop the sherbet into cones or bowls, and dig in! It’s a delicious and easy way to cool off on a hot day. Enjoy your homemade peach sherbet!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I Use Fresh Peaches Instead of Frozen?
Yes, you can use fresh peaches! Simply peel, slice, and freeze them for a few hours before using. This ensures the peaches are sufficiently frozen to create that smooth, creamy sherbet texture.

If you prefer a less sweet sherbet, you can reduce the amount of sweetened condensed milk slightly. Just keep in mind that it might affect the creaminess, so consider adding a splash of milk if needed.
