Baking| Roasted Peach & Plum Ice Cream … with condensed milk {eggless}
“…stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot oftener, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more and cry less. Life must be lived as we go along.”
Robert J. Hastings {Tinyburg Tales}
This is one of those recipes lurking in my folder, adapted from a breathtakingly delicious looking post on Sips and Spoonfuls, devoured, yet for some reason it went ‘unblogged’! This eggless Roasted Peach & Plum Ice Cream made with condensed milk hit a nice chord after the Mango Fro Yo we got addicted to!
As we’ve bid adieu to stone fruit in our neck of the woods, I need to get this out for the lucky folk who are enjoying late summer stone fruit. I also enviously dream of the folk in the Southern Hemisphere who are now welcoming Spring and all the joys of berries & stone fruit! 
Condensed milk in ice cream is something very new for me, and had me pretty much intrigued as I read Sukaina’s post, devouring all her beautiful pictures. It was a post that sent me scurrying into the kitchen that same morning
In next to no time I had delicious aromas of stone fruit baking with vanilla wafting through the kitchen. It’s a heady way to begin a morning … for stone fruit lovers like me!
It gets even more interesting if you are trying to take photographs and run helter skelter from a very inquisitive pooch, one who seems to enjoy every opportunity to ‘check out’ what’s on the menu! 
My days of ‘relaxed’ & ‘carefree’ photography are history, ones that I never cherished! 
Cut to now … I’m often glad to click a single frame without having to shoo Coco away! The hapless cocker gets nothing, not a crumb … and eventually snoozes! She is C.U.T.E. though, and even naughtier than before!!
I absolutely love the depth of flavour that roasting fruit gets. Add a vanilla bean and it gets addictive. I had a bit of a struggle keeping the tiresome teen away from my beloved roasted fruit puree as she was looking at having a go at the bowl! Two spoonfuls and I literally shoved her out of my kitchen! 
Turned out to be quite a delicious, low cal ice cream. What’s not to love about the colours and glory of stone fruit!
[print_this]Recipe: Roasted Peach & Plum Ice Cream 
Summary:I absolutely love the depth of flavour that roasting fruit get. Add a vanilla bean and it gets addictive. This turned out to be quite a delicious, low cal ice cream.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 6 peaches- halved, pitted
- 8 plums, halved pitted
- 1 vanilla pod, scraped
- 3 tbs brown sugar
- 200ml low fat cream
- 200gm hung yogurt, well drained
- 400 ml condensed milk
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Combine sugar and vanilla. Arrange the peaches & plums skin side down on a baking tray and sprinkle with the vanilla/ sugar mixture. Grill in the oven for 20 minutes or until the top of the peaches appear caramelized.
- Remove the skin from the peaches as soon as it is cool enough to do so. Puree the peaches and any juices in the baking tray in a blender. {I left the skin on}
- {Thermomix: Puree at Speed 10 for 1 minute. Freeze the puree in ice trays or silicon trays}
- In a separate bowl combine, the cream, milk, condensed milk and peach/plum puree. Adjust sugar if required. Adding peach extract, peach liqueur or a teeny bit of kirsch will enhance the flavours. Churn in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s directions.
- {Thermomix: Place frozen puree cubes and cream and condensed milk in TM bowl and process on Speed 10, 1 minute at a time, scraping as required, until smooth. Place in freezer safe bowl and freeze until ready to serve.}

Your photos are so beautiful. I love that you are so creative with your composition. I hear you about little furry friends following you around. Yesterday, I cooked a pork roast. My dog and cat were constant companions watching my every move!

The ice-cream flavours are so unique!

A wonderful ice cream! It is such a great idea to use roasted peaches and plums. In that way, the fabulous fruity flavor of your ice cream is even more pronounced.
Cheers,
Rosa

Barbara @ Barbara Bakes
I’d have a hard time not eating the fruit puree too. I can just imagine how fabulous your house smelled. I’ve been wanting to try condensed milk in ice cream. Your ice cream sounds amazing.
Heavenly Housewife
I had a plan to make roasted strawberry ice cream… but now summer is pretty much over… oh well, i’ll make it anyway.
Beautiful ice cream, your pictures are lush!

I just made a peach and plum crisp a couple of weeks ago. It was a marriage of two fruits I had to use up and I was so glad I tried them together; they were a luscious combination. So…I can only imagine how wonderful this must be Deeba. Can I say it? I have to. Yum.
Purnima
Deeba..this unique idea of roasting fruits that go into the ice-cream, sounds pretty exciting..tks for sharing!
Sukaina
Very original of you to use plums as well as peaches. I’ve never had ice cream with condensed milk eaither until I made it myself but I really liked the flavor. Very pretty pictures as usual Deeba
Barbara
I made an eggless ice cream with condensed milk recently. It was divine. And this looks every bit as good. Love that you roasted the peaches first!
Priya
Extremely irresistible…super delicious icecream..

The last of the ice cream ushering out the “dog days” of summer.
Lora
So glad we still have peaches and now plums here in the farmers’ markets in NYC. Gonna scoop myself up some this week and make this. Just gorgeous ice cream.
Tadka Pasta
Oh, that’s a wonderful way to enjoy the last of the peaches and plums! We love baked fruit too, especially when it is not bogged down with tons of sugar. Wonderful pictures and lovely recipe!
Lana @ Never Enough Thyme
Oh, my. I would honestly have never thought of roasting the fruit, but my goodness what a glorious flavor that would be! We still have both peaches and plums available so I’ll definitely give this a try very soon.
jehanne@thecookingdoctor
I can see you are gearing up for more ice-creams Deeba;-)

Roasted peach and plum! This sounds amazing. I wish I would have though to do this when I had tons of these in the house
Brian @ A Thought For Food
You really do take some of my favorite food photos. Just beautiful, my dear.

Deepti Pawar
That last picture Deeba is absolutely like the climax of a beautifully orchestrated recipe. The tall glass of ice cream stands like a lady singing an opera with a flowing gown. Totally awesome, this one!
Kerri
Those look phenomenal! I used to have a plum tree in my yard but then we got rid of it. Now I’m really wishing we hadn’t done so. Now I need to go buy some! I really want to try your recipe. Thanks for posting it and all your hard work!
Vijitha
Stunning clicks and the ice cream look so inviting. I agree roasted fruits always taste great and they add different taste to the dish. I love love love your puppy. She is so cute!!!
Simone
I literally just discovered Sukaina’s blog just minuted before reading this blogpost… Talk about coincidence! I love the look of this icecream, although unfortunately the stonefruit has definitely had it’s best time here as I found out this week. But this looks gorgeous! I love that dark shot of the glass with the icecream in it. Brilliant.
Joy
The ice cream looks great.
