Peach Sherbet

Last summer I made Raspberry Sherbet from fresh raspberries using this recipe: http://www.brm-icecream.com/rasblc.htm It was very yummy. This weekend for daughter-in-law's birthday I adapted the recipe and made Peach Sherbet using some of my home-canned peaches.

Makes almost 1 gallon

Drain a quart jar of peaches. Put in saucepan with 2 cups sugar and 1 1/2 cups of water. Cook for 5 minutes.

Puree fruit mixture in blender. Be careful the mixture is hot!

In large mixer bowl blend 1 cup heavy cream and 2 egg whites into fruit mixture.

Pour into ice cream maker. Add milk to reach the fill line. Process sherbet following the ice cream maker’s instructions.
