Ingredients
4 cups fresh peaches, peeled and chopped (or frozen peaches, thawed)
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ cup water
Instructions

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can freeze the mixture in a shallow dish and stir every 30 minutes until smooth.
Adjust sugar according to the sweetness of your peaches.
