2. While the blender is running slowly add the coconut oil until fully incorporated.
3. Chill the base thoroughly in the fridge, then process in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Add the diced, fresh peach just before turning off the churner.NOTE: Alternatively, you can just freeze the batter in a loaf pan and scoop. It will be a bit denser.
