Peaches N Cream Ice Pops Food

PEACHES 'N' CREAM ICE POPS

Steps:

• Pack 3 tablespoons ice cream into each of six 3-ounce disposable paper cups. Insert ice-pop sticks and freeze until firm, 1 hour. In a blender, combine peaches, sugar, and juice and puree until smooth, scraping down sides if necessary. Pour 1 tablespoon puree into each of six 6-ounce paper cups and freeze until firm, 1 hour. Reserve remaining puree.
• Peel away paper from 3-ounce cups and place each ice cream pop into a larger cup of frozen puree. Pour enough reserved puree into cups to just cover ice cream. Freeze until solid, 4 hours (or up to 1 week). Unmold ice pops just before serving.

PEACHES AND CREAM ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Put the peaches into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped.
• In a medium bowl, use a whisk to combine the milk, cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt just until the sugar is dissolved. (Note that if you use allulose it will dissolve quickly so only a short whisking will be needed)
• Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours, or overnight.
• Turn on the ice cream maker; pour the mixture into the frozen freezer bowl and let the maker run until a soft creamy texture is achieved, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer for about 2 to 3 hours or until it reaches the desired consistency.

PEACHES AND CREMA PALETA POPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss peaches with brown sugar and cinnamon on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast until peaches release some juices but are still holding their shape, 10-15 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, combine milk, granulated sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan. If using vanilla bean, scrape in seeds and add pod (wait if using vanilla extract). Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and mixture comes to a gentle boil, taking care not to scald, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat, then transfer milk mixture to a medium bowl. Add crema, powdered sugar, and lemon juice and whisk until smooth. Whisk in vanilla extract, if using. Let cool slightly, then discard vanilla bean pod, if needed, and chill until cold.
• Fill each ice-pop mold with crema mixture to a height of 1". Freeze until mixture begins to set, about 30 minutes. Divide peaches among molds, then evenly pour remaining crema mixture into each mold, leaving at least 1/2" from top of mold.
• Place lids over ice-pop molds, insert sticks, and freeze until ice pops are solid, at least 4 hours.
• Just before serving, dip molds briefly into hot water to release.
• Pops can be made and frozen for up to 3 months.
