Ingredients

  • 7 large peaches
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • Fill a large stockpot about halfway full with water. Bring it to a boil over high heat. Fill a large bowl with ice water, and set this aside.
  • Cut an X in the bottom of each peach with a paring knife. Drop the peaches in the boiling water for about 30 seconds or just until you see the skin start to pull apart from the flesh where you cut the X. Don't let the peaches cook too long!
    Use a slotted spoon to remove the peaches and transfer them to the bowl of ice water.
  • Gently remove the skin from the peaches using your fingers or a paring knife. It should pull away easily.
  • Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. Then cut them into slices. You should have about 6 cups of peeled peaches (more or less is OK).
  • Puree the peaches, honey, lemon zest, and juice in a food processor for about 60 seconds or until you have a smooth liquid. Scrape down the sides and check to make sure there are no solid pieces left.
  • Transfer the peach puree to a freezer bag and freeze for about four hours or until the mixture is firm. Note that it will not freeze like ice because of the honey. It will still be pliable.
  • Return the frozen peach sorbet to the food processor and puree it again for about 45 seconds. This second puree incorporates more air, making it light and creamy.
  • Serve immediately or transfer the sorbet to an airtight container and freeze it for up to two months.

Notes

I don't recommend using a zero-calorie sweetener because the sorbet will freeze too hard. The honey keeps it soft and scoopable. 
If you prefer to use an ice cream maker, add the pureed peaches, honey, and lemon to the frozen ice cream maker canister instead of the freezer bag. Churn the puree for about 20-60 minutes (depending on your machine) or until it's light and creamy.
