Peach Sherbet – a creamy, delicious, velvety smooth fresh peach dessert – made with only two ingredients right in your blender!
Tips for picking the best peaches:
- Select peaches that are firm with no shriveled skin;
- The peaches should be very fragrant;
- The fruit should be slightly soft when gently squeezed;
- Check for bruises and avoid damaged fruit;
- Color is a good indicator of great fruit, pick those with deep, rich hues;
- Large peaches have the most sugar, select medium to large peaches;
- Buy local if you can. These peaches have spent less time traveling and more time on the tree to ripen!

Sherbert, Sherbet or Sorbet?
Sherbert – a frozen dessert made of fruit juice and sugar, but also containing milk or gelatin.Sherbet – an American term for a frozen dessert like sorbet, but containing a small amount of milkfat, generally 1-3%. Anything more (above 3%) is considered ice cream (source).(Sounds like sherbert to me!)Sorbet – refers to a frozen dessert made from sweetened water with flavoring (typically fruit juice or fruit puree, wine or liqueur), with little or no dairy. (source)Call it sherbert or sherbet – either way it’s still a wonderful fruity dessert, perfect on a hot summer day!

No kidding – just two ingredients – frozen sliced peaches and sweetened condensed milk.





We are smitten with this delicious concoction.

Ingredients
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 5-6 large to medium ripe peaches
Instructions
- Peel fresh peaches over a parchment paper lined baking sheet to catch the juice. Slice the peaches and freeze (and any accumulated juice) in a single layer on the parchment lined baking sheet until frozen, about 4 hours.
- Add the peaches and sweetened condensed milk to a blender and puree until the peaches are the consistency of soft serve ice cream. This can be done in batches if needed.
- Serve immediately or freeze in an airtight container for an ice cream consistency.
Recipe Notes
- Recipe adapted from Martha Stewart
- This recipe is only as good as the peaches used to make it. With only two ingredients, the peach flavor will be best with super ripe, juicy peaches. If using store-bought frozen peaches, be sure they have good flavor for best results.

Kate says
Tried this Peach Sherbet tonight. A keeper! Smooth and creamy and tasty!! I made half the recipe with half a can of sweetened condensed milk and three medium peaches. That made two bowls for dessert and two in the freezer for another night. Two hours was plenty of time to freeze the peaches. I left the skin on the peaches and the sherbet had little dark flecks in it, which was fine. Figured there was no reason to get rid of all that good fiber. Thanks so much!
Tricia Buice says
Thanks Kate! It’s just so good and hard to resist with fresh sweet peaches. So glad you gave it a try. Thanks for commenting.
Julia Hensley says
Made this morning. Had to stop myself from making it breakfast. I did use more peaches than recipe called for. Just kept tasting it until I was super happy. Two ingredients! Yummy dessert! Easy to make! What isn’t to like. Next time I might mix in frozen blueberries or something. Can’t wait until later when it has been in freezer for a bit. Might have to stop myself from making it lunch.
Tricia Buice says
Oh how I can relate Julia! Thanks so much for trying this wonderful treat. Good luck on getting a proper lunch 🙂
Mae says
How many cups of peaches do you estimate this would make. I have some mangoes already frozen in two cups amounts. Would I need more than 2 cups.
Tricia Buice says
Hi Mae. I would use two of your packages of mangoes, or 4 cups total. I have a no churn mango ice cream recipe you might also like. The biggest difference is that it incorporates cream along with the sweetened condensed milk. Enjoy!
Melanie says
Has anyone tried it with fat free sweetened condensed milk? I have a can I want to use up. Wondering how it would freeze.
Tricia Buice says
Hi Melanie. I have not but definitely think you should give it a try. I think the fruit will help it freeze beautifully. Let us know how it turns out!
Suze says
I made this peach ice cream!!! Was sooo good. But next time, and there WILL be a next time, I will add a little cinnamon. Not a lot, just a little.
Tricia Buice says
Love the idea of adding cinnamon Suze. I bet it will be lovely! Thanks for trying the recipe and for taking the time to comment. Bravo!
Agnes says
Tried this it was plentiful!, Beautiful texture! Couldn’t (yikes!!) stop eating it ?
Would this work with other ripe fruits..ie..pears, large plums, mangoes??? I’m
Tricia Buice says
Hi Agnes. I’ve made this with strawberries and mangoes and loved it. We made the strawberry version all summer. What a treat! Thanks for the feedback!
SB says
I’m sorry but this was actually gross. All you could really taste was the condensed milk even after adding more peaches. I don’t recommend.
Tricia Buice says
Sorry you didn’t enjoy this peach sherbet. There must be something off about your peaches if you only taste the condensed milk. As mentioned in the post, when working with only two ingredients, the peaches need to be the best, and sweetest you can find.
msSally says
If using store bought frozen peaches how do you know how much to use?
Thanks
Tricia Buice says
Hi Ms. Sally. According to my blender it reads 9 cups. You don’t want to use that much fresh unfrozen peaches, however. You’ll need about 5 or 6 cups of fresh peaches, before they are frozen. Hope this helps!
Lynn Sorrell says
I used canned mandarin oranges put the segments on parchment paper on baking sheet,they froze fast then mixed with cream in ninja tasted like a Orange Dreamcicle. THX for easy way to make something so scrumptious on a day when it is 110 degrees outside!
Tricia Buice says
I LOVE this Lynn! Thanks for the inspiration. I adore orange Dreamcicles – so many memories from my childhood. Thanks again 🙂
Jolie says
Wow. That was an easy save for an unspired day of cooking. I wanted a quick dessert and this was the highlight of the meal. I sliced fresh peaches an hour before people were due to arrive and panicked when I saw the four hour freeze time. But once they came and we had our meal, they were plenty enough frozen to blend with the sweetened milk (I added honey for the possibly not as sweat peaches). Thanks for sharing!
Tricia Buice says
Terrific Jolie! So glad this worked out and everyone enjoyed. Great idea to add honey when the peaches are not very sweet. Bravo for pulling it out 🙂
Denise Van Dusen says
The peach Sherbet was delicious. I had trouble getting the frozen peaches to blend at first so I think I will use my food processor next time. So good I will be doing this again. Thanks for the recipe.
Tricia Buice says
Thank you Denise! Maybe if you let them thaw just a bit they’ll blend easier. Thanks for the feedback and for trying the recipe 🙂
Jennifer @ Seasons and Suppers says
Perfection! Anxiously waiting for local peaches here to give this one a try 🙂
Tricia Buice says
It’s such an easy treat, and so delicious. Enjoy!
Liz says
I just bought 25 pounds of Georgia peaches this morning so your recipe came at the perfect time. With only two ingredients, it’s a must make!!
Tricia Buice says
You’re going to be a busy lady Liz! I could eat peaches with every meal. I know you’ll love this easy recipe. Thanks so much!
John / Kitchen Riffs says
This looks terrific! Easy and SO flavorful — winner! 🙂 Really nice recipe — thanks.
Tricia Buice says
Thanks John!
sue says
I love that you call it peach velvet! It looks like it has an amazing texture, I can’t wait to churn some up, and maybe put a scoop on that amazing peach pie of yours 🙂
Tricia Buice says
Thank you so much Sue!
Larissa Goldstein says
Wonderful ice cream. I personally didn’t like it freshly blended, tasted too sweet from the condensed milk. But when frozen 8 -12 hours and was the consistency of ice cream- wow, yummy!
Highly recommend?
Tricia Buice says
Thanks Larissa! I agree, it’s best frozen into peach velvet!
Nick says
Made it for my wife. She doesn’t really like ice cream, but she loved this!! We used peaches from our small tree in the front yard, some were riper than others. I added some peach schnapps to keep it from freezing too hard, and it adds more “peachy ness” to the taste.
Tricia Buice says
Thanks Nick! We love this sherbet too. It’s hard to beat fresh peaches and especially from your own tree! Outstanding 🙂 Thanks for trying it and for taking the time to come back and comment. Best wishes 🙂
Brianna says
Have you ever tried this with sweetened condensed coconut milk?
Tricia Buice says
Hi Brianna. No I have not tried it with the sweetened condensed coconut milk but it sounds terrific! Let us know if you give it a go. Very curious to hear how it turns out.
Amber says
Yum! I didn’t have sweetened and condensed milk so did whipping cream and sugar. We ate most of it without freezing. ?. However, I did get some into the freezer to see what the texture will be like. Thanks!
Tricia Buice says
Wow – that sounds delicious! Good for you and thanks for the great NEW idea 🙂
Toni says
Hmmmm, was just thinking….. you said one could also use store bought frozen fruit, so, that got my brain going haywire, because of the ENDLESS delicious combinations!! I know I have bags of strawberry/banana, mixed berries, & I believe a bag of peach/mango/pineapple, and also a bag of peach/mango/strawberry!! Ooooooh, I am going to have SOOOOOO much fun with this!! LOL Thank you for the inspiration!! ???? My family is gonna have a GREAT summer, which basically started awhile ago here in FAAAABULOUS Las Vegas, NV! ????
cassie norby says
Tastes nothing like sorbet, tastes like peach flavored sweetened condensed milk. Was horrible.
Tricia Buice says
Hi Cassie – I am so sorry you disliked this recipe. It is actually a sherbet – not sorbet so it is supposed to be more creamy than fruity/icy. Since there are only two ingredients the only thing I can think of is that maybe your peaches were not at their prime? We loved this and could not believe how delicious it was with just two ingredients. All our recipes are tested and shared with taste testers. Everybody loved it especially with how easy it is to make. Again I am so sorry you had a bad experience but hope you will come back again! We strive to please our readers with recipes you can enjoy. I apologize that you gave us a try and had a bad outcome. Thanks again for your feedback.
Carol says
Well like my brother-in-law says “that’s why there’s so many different kinds of toilet paper”.
Marilyn R Lewis says
I added a teaspoon of cinnamon delicious.
Tricia Buice says
That is brilliant Marilyn! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Betty says
How many peaches did you use?
Tricia Buice says
Hi Betty – I used about 5 or 6 larges peaches. Hope you give it a try – it couldn’t be easier!
Emily says
Do you have to peel them?
Tricia Buice says
Hi Emily – I peeled them for a smoother sherbet – but if you don’t want to they may blend up a little chunkier – which would be okay too!
Abigail Bryant says
My blender cannot handle this recipe… Am I okay to thaw the peaches of will it mess up the texture??
Tricia Buice says
Hi Abigail. I think you can use fresh peaches and freeze it until firm and it will taste wonderful. If you want to thaw frozen peaches and blend them semi-soft I think that would work fine too. The frozen peaches work best if you want to eat it immediately like soft serve. Enjoy!
Sandy Parisi says
Can’t wait to try this Peach sherbet recipe have a mini farm and still trying to get it all straightened out peaches are just about ready picked my first batch yesterday looks like a great way to use my peaches while at their Peak I’m very excited about it found this recipe after my last season catastrophe anyway thanks for this easy recipe going to make it today
Tricia Buice says
Good luck Sandy! So jealous you have your own peach trees. How amazing! Enjoy 🙂
michaelswoodcraft says
Looks delicious! and just two ingredients too! I am going to make this and I might even try it with strawberries! I enjoyed visiting your site!<br /><br />check out my blog sometime, recent post; making Vanilla Ice Cream!<br />Michael<br /><br />http://michaelswoodcraft.wordpress.com/2014/07/29/vanilla-ice-cream-2/
Joyce says
I made this with frozen peaches and it was absolutely delicious!! I was wondering if I made several batches, could I keep it in the freezer for longer than a few days?
Tricia Buice says
Hi Joyce! Yes you can as long as it is well sealed. I would press a little plastic wrap directly on top of the ice cream to help prevent ice crystals. It will be great!
skylar shine says
Can you use regular 2% milk?
Tricia Buice says
Hey Skylar – I think you could use milk – just start off with a small amount. You may need to sweeten it with honey or other sweetener of your choice to make it taste more like ice cream and less like a smoothie. Sweetened condensed milk is pretty thick which really helps with the velvety texture of this dessert. Good luck!
Carolyn says
It was way too sweet for us so I’m going to try adding some reg milk and add less of the sweetened milk.mine was made w blueberries so that could have made some difference. Just way, way too sweet.
Tricia Buice says
Must have had some really sweet blueberries! Thanks for the feedback.
SavoringTime in the Kitchen says
It does look incredibly creamy and delicious! I can imagine all of the wonderful fruit flavored sherbets that could be made this way depending on the season. What a great idea, Tricia!
Carol says
If you wanted to make Strawberry or Blueberry or any other flavor how much fruit would you need?
I can hardly wait to make this, however, it’s only May and living in Chicago we won’t get peaches till
well into summer. But, “good things come to those who wait”.
Tricia Buice says
Hi Carol – I would use equal amounts of whatever fruit you have. Strawberries would be good but you may want to strain the seeds from the pulp first. Also blueberries may not work as well because of the skin. Any stone fruit with soft flesh will be better. I always wait until peach weather is here before making this, unless I have good, juicy, ripe peaches in the freezer 🙂
sandie says
what about honeydew?
Tricia Buice says
Hi Sandie – I don’t know about honeydew with sweetened condensed milk. I think stone fruits would be better. Great question though – thanks!
Lucy says
Hi Tricia,
Can I use can peaches?
Tricia Buice says
Hi Lucy. I think that would be fine. Either store-bought or home canned will probably work. Just flash freeze the peaches first. Since there’s only two ingredients, the peaches should be good and juicy. Don’t use the kind in syrup, however as it would be too sweet. Thanks for the great question.
Abbe@This is How I Cook says
Growing up when we were sick my mom used to give us the orange, green and pink sherbet. It was so good. but this looks like way better! Just tried some chocolate ice cream made similar to this. Love this no ice cream maker stuff!
Kitchen Belleicious says
that is one amazing and easy way to make sherbet. Why havent I done it before then?? Love learning new things especially when I know my boys will love it
Anna and Liz Recipes says

Elzbieta Hester says

TLady says
OH MY!!! 😀 I can see the "happy inside!" LOL
jen says
No fair!!! This sounds great but I can't have milk. Please tell me I can still make it with a subsitute. Thanks for the recipe because if there's no sub, I will make it for someone else.
Deb says
Then make SORBET tast good and takes NO milk or dairy. It’s simple to make also…..
Allison says
Canned coconut milk, or dairy free yogurt
Cheri Savory Spoon says
Hi Tricia, oh my goodness! I will be making this. I do not have an ice cream maker and this sherbet sounds so easy to make. Looks delicious!
Tricia Buice says
It's unbelievable how easy this is and so tasty 🙂
Sue/the view from great island says
Just beautiful, Tricia! I am longing for a Vitamix, it looks like it's magic!<br />
Tricia Buice says
I just used my Ninja blender Sue – so easy!
scrambledhenfruit says
Perfect timing for this! It's just about time for those ripe juicy peaches to be showing up at the market. I love that it's so easy too. 🙂
Tricia Buice says
Easy is good and this is great sherbet!
Monica says
I just love sweetened condensed milk…and love how easy this sherbet is! Looks lusciously delicious!
Tricia Buice says
We are fans of sweetened condensed milk too – love the list of ingredients – milk and sugar. Perfect!
Karen Harris says
Eagle Brand does make some wonderful ice cream. I can't wait for our local peaches to arrive so I can give this a try.
Tricia Buice says
You're going to love it Karen!
Angie Schneider says
DELICIOUS! And just two ingredients…awesome!
Tricia Buice says
Thanks Angie – have a great week!
Dee Reed says
Would love this, and have a thousand ideas! Would really like a low/no sugar alternative. Please offer suggestions for making a sherbet, of same consistency, using an unsweetened homemade version of condensed milk (prefer using evaporated milk and stevia/stevia extract liquid or powder). Ty
Tricia Buice says
Hi Dee. I think you’re on the right track with substituting evaporated milk and stevia. Not sure of the measurements as I haven’t made it with these ingredients. I feel sure it will turn out fine. Adjust your sweetener depending on how sweet your peaches are. Out of season peaches are not near as sweet, so taste to make sure. Thanks!
