Ingredients

  • 2 cups ripe peaches, diced (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended)
  • 1/3 cup honey or sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream (plus more for re-spins)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Step 1: If using fresh peaches, dice and optionally macerate with 1 tablespoon of sugar for 20 minutes. If using frozen peaches, thaw slightly or use frozen as-is.
  2. Step 2: In a bowl, whisk the yogurt, sweetener, lemon juice, vanilla extract, salt, and 2 tablespoons milk or cream until well combined but not too thin.
  3. Step 3: Stir in the diced peaches, reserving a few pieces if you want to add them later as mix-ins.
  4. Step 4: Pour the mixture into the Ninja Creami-compatible pint container, smooth the top, and freeze for at least 24 hours on a flat surface in the back of the freezer.
  5. Step 5: Process the frozen pint in the Ninja Creami, selecting the ice cream or frozen dessert setting for a creamy texture.
  6. Step 6: Check the texture after processing. If crumbly, drizzle 1–2 tablespoons milk or cream into the center and re-spin. If too soft, refreeze for 1–2 hours and spin again.
  7. Step 7: Add any reserved peach chunks or your favorite toppings in the mix-in step or by creating a small well in the center and using the mix-in function, then serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • For a smoother yogurt, puree half the peaches before mixing with the rest diced for texture.
  • Macerate peaches with sugar for 20–30 minutes to intensify flavor without cooking.
  • Try adding fresh chopped basil for an elegant peach basil frozen yogurt.
  • Fold in toasted almonds and a swirl of honey for a delightful honey almond crunch.
  • Use full-fat coconut yogurt and a splash of coconut cream for a dairy-free coconut peach version.
  • For a grown-up twist, macerate peaches in a tablespoon of bourbon before mixing.
  • Add mix-ins only after the first spin to keep chunks intact and avoid icy texture.

Storage

Store your peach frozen yogurt in an airtight container in the freezer for 1–2 weeks. For best texture, consume within the first week. If the frozen yogurt hardens too much, let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes, then re-spin in the Ninja Creami or stir vigorously to restore scoopability.

How to Serve

A white bowl filled with two layers of frozen yogurt sits on a white marbled surface. The bottom layer is a smooth, light peach-colored swirl with soft texture, topped with a thick, white whipped swirl that looks creamy and airy. Around the bowl, fresh peach slices with red and yellow skin add bright, natural colors and a fresh look, one slice is leaning against the bowl. A silver spoon is placed inside the bowl. The background shows an out-of-focus peach-colored creamy spread. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use frozen peaches straight from the bag?

Yes. You can puree them frozen or thaw slightly. If added frozen to the base, consider adding a bit more sugar or cream to prevent ice crystals.

Do I need to add cream to get creaminess?

Not strictly. Full-fat Greek yogurt often provides enough creaminess. A small splash of cream or milk can help achieve extra silkiness if desired.

Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 2 cups ripe peaches, diced (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 cups plain Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended)
  • 1/3 cup honey or sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream (plus more for re-spins)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Peaches: Dice fresh peaches or slightly thaw frozen peaches. Optionally macerate diced peaches with 1 tablespoon sugar for 20–30 minutes to enhance flavor and juice extraction.
  2. Mix Base Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, honey or sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, pinch of salt, and 2 tablespoons milk or cream until smooth and slightly pourable but not too thin.
  3. Incorporate Peaches: Fold in the diced peaches gently. Reserve a few diced pieces if you want to use them later as mix-ins to maintain texture variety.
  4. Freeze the Mixture: Pour the peach yogurt base into a Ninja Creami-compatible pint container. Smooth the top and freeze on a flat surface in the back of the freezer for at least 24 hours to ensure a fully frozen block for ideal texture.
  5. Process in Ninja Creami: Attach the Creami paddle to the pint and select the ice cream or frozen dessert setting according to your machine’s instructions. Process once to achieve creamy frozen yogurt.
  6. Adjust Texture if Needed: If the frozen yogurt is crumbly or powdery, drizzle 1–2 tablespoons milk or cream in the center well and re-spin until the desired creamy texture is reached. For too soft results, refreeze for 1–2 hours then re-spin.
  7. Add Mix-Ins: If desired, create a small well in the center of the yogurt, add reserved peach chunks, toasted almonds, or other mix-ins, and use the mix-in function or a gentle re-spin to incorporate.
  8. Serve or Store: Serve immediately for best creaminess, or refreeze briefly (15–30 minutes) for a firmer scoop. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for 1–2 weeks.

Notes

  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the creamiest texture, but 2% or non-dairy yogurts can also work with slight adjustments.
  • Macerating peaches with sugar intensifies peach flavor and helps release natural juices.
  • Freeze the pint for at least 24 hours on a flat surface to prevent ice crystals and ensure smooth texture.
  • If the texture is grainy or icy, try adding milk or cream and re-spin in the Ninja Creami.
  • Add mix-ins only after the first spin to maintain their texture.
  • Peach frozen yogurt keeps best for up to one week for optimal texture and flavor.
  • The recipe is adaptable: try adding fresh herbs like basil, spices like cinnamon, or mix-in nuts and fruit for variations.
