Peel and pit the peaches, then cut them into small chunks.
Place the peach chunks in a food processor and puree until smooth.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peach puree with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside for about 15 minutes to macerate.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the sugar is dissolved.
Gently fold the peach mixture into the cream mixture until well combined.
Pour the ice cream mixture into an ice cream maker and follow the manufacturer's instructions to churn the ice cream.
Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to an airtight container.
Cover the container with a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Freeze for an additional 2-4 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, for easier scooping.
