A creamy and rich ice cream with all the flavors of Peach Cobbler. This Peach Cobbler Ice Cream is a delicious summertime treat that is a perfect way to use fresh summer peaches.
Fresh Peaches
We have fresh peaches galore right now in South Carolina. I used about 4 peaches for this batch of ice cream. Two of them I left chopped and 2 of them I pureed. The pureed peaches give the ice cream a slight peach color, but if you want more of a peach color, you’ll have to use a little food coloring. (I didn’t use food coloring.)
Pie Crust Pieces
My favorite part of this Peach Cobbler Ice Cream is the pie crust pieces that are mixed in. The pie crust is sprinkled with brown sugar and cinnamon before it is baked and the little pieces in the ice cream not only give flavor, but also a nice texture contrast.
Ice Cream Maker
You do need an ice cream maker for this recipe. I use the Cuisinart Ice Cream & Sorbet Maker
. At about $50 , it is a really good investment if you love ice cream. I also use it to make my Banana Pudding Ice Cream.
For an extra special treat, put some Peach Cobbler Ice Cream on some Peach Cobbler. Double Deliciousness!

I love this, but I’m curious what the purpose of the boiling steps are. I was feeling lazy so I just mixed all the ingredients except the pie crust together and put them in the ice cream maker, and it turned out perfect. I also added two teaspoons of cinnamon to the ice cream for flavor and it adds a satisfying flavor. Thanks!
For this recipe can I not add the eggs I’m allergic
Hello, what is the shelf life of it keeping in the freezer and how is the texture of the icecream and peaches after freezer?
We loved this ice cream! It was so good! To anyone making this I suggest cutting up the peaches really small because after freezing, the peaches turn into ice cubes.
I’m really sick of these people that post these recipes on Pintrest thinking they are another Paula Deen! Half the time they leave a step out (like this woman did) or they put the wrong measurement, etc. And you’re left with expensive wasted ingredients or a bad tasting recipe that you just throw out! Other than Christy Armabide ‘ s recipes I’m finished trusting these amatures!
