I usually buy fruits from Costco, but a box of peaches felt a bit intimidating this time. With the hot weather, I knew they’d ripen too quickly before we could finish them. So, on our next trip to Aldi, I decided to grab a few cans of peaches in extra light syrup.
Wow, what a game changer! After a quick spin in the Ninja Creami, my kids couldn’t get enough of the peach ice cream, and it disappeared in no time. Even my husband, who’s not typically a fan of peaches, loved it.
This recipe is definitely a win for me! It’s right up there with our other favorites, like Mango Ice Cream, Cookies and Cream Ice Cream, Sweet Corn Ice Cream, Strawberries and Cream Ice Cream, Blueberry Ice Cream, Banana Split Ice Cream, Cherry ice cream, and even S'mores Ice Cream—perfect for keeping the whole family happy with endless ice cream options!

How To Make Peach and Cream Ice Cream Using Ninja Creami?
- In a blender, combine peaches, cottage cheese, condensed milk, half and half, and monk fruit. Pour the blended mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container, making sure it does not exceed the max fill line.
- Place the pint container in the freezer and freeze for at least 18-24 hours.
- After freezing, remove the pint container from the freezer and place it into the Ninja Creami ice cream machine. Attach the pint holder lid and lock it into place. Select the "Lite Ice Cream" setting and let the Ninja Creami process the mixture. *see notes
- Scoop the peach and cream ice cream into bowls and top with your favorite toppings.
*NOTE: If your mixture is still crumbly after the first spin, just hit the "Respin" button and keep going until it’s nice and creamy. Adding a tablespoon of cream or milk can help speed things up.
Normally, if you let it sit out for 5 to 10 minutes after taking it out of the freezer, it usually won't need any spin.
