It’s National Peach Ice Cream Day today and although I don’t have any peach ice cream recipes, I have 10 ideas that play upon peaches + ice cream.

Mango, apricots, oranges, and bananas are involved but use peaches or nectarines if you wish. Everything is largely interchangeable.

Do you like peaches, apricots, nectarines?

I love them all and am realizing I need to make more things using them. Really, summer + fruit go hand in hand.

From watermelon and berries to white nectarines and juicy peaches, I love this time of year.

If you have any good recipes using any seasonal or summer fruits, feel free to link them up.

I hope everyone had a great weekend.

  1. Mmm i have to make the peach banana smoothie! and the softserve. Everything here looks delish Averie! Yes, love all 3 fruits!

  2. I like all 3 a lot, but peaches are my very favourite out of those 3 :-) I made “adult” beverages like that on Friday. Yummmmmmy, but a little dangerous too!!!

  3. I love peaches and apricots. I eat a peach every day all summer long, and I freeze enough to last through winter. Today I’m making peach coffee cake, and I’m working on cherry and apricot crumb cake. All the amazing fruit is one of the best things of summer!

  4. oh my gosh I love love LOVE peaches! those bars look incredible! I could definitely go for one right. about. now:)

    1. They’re one of our faves – I need to remake them and take new pics to do them justice!

  5. You are like my go-to source for food holidays! All of those recipes look stellar, Averie!!

  6. Yeah, I wanna know where you find out about all these awesome holidays! How fun :) I love nectarines, berries & melons the most, but actually am not *typically* a huge peach fan… weird I know! And I can NEVER find white nectarines… where do you get yours?

    1. There’s a website that I linked at the top of the post that has all the holidays…I check it from time to time to see what’s coming up.

      White nectarines are highly!! seasonal…and for about 4 weeks a year, max, I get them at Ralph’s (regular groc store b/c I refuse to pay WF’s prices – or check your local CA farmers markets)

  7. Mmm we love just about any fruit at our house! Right now it’s cherries. Can’t see to get enough of them!

  8. This is perfect! We went peach picking this past weekend and picked about ten pounds….!

  9. Mmmmm…fresh peaches are without a doubt one of the best parts of summer! These recipes all look DELICIOUS!!

  10. I do love peaches – especially grilled. YUM. I really need to pick some up. I haven’t gotten any in quite sometime actually.

    1. The link at the top of the post has all the food holidays on it and I just check it from time to time.

  11. Double choc chip cookies and ice cream looks amazing! I love peaches and vanilla ice cream- such a great combo!

  12. That smoothie sounds pretty darn good! Perfect for a hot summer day! I adore peaches. They go bad sooo fast though

    1. I know – they can go from no where near ripe to over-ripe in like 36 hours sometimes!
