Ingredients

Avocado Ice Cream Ingredients

  • 1 14-ounce can full-fat coconut milk (refrigerated overnight)
  • 2 avocados (halved, pitted, and peeled)
  • 1 ripe banana (cut and frozen)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 4-5 fresh mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Chill the loaf pan: Place a loaf pan in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours to ensure it is well chilled, which helps the ice cream set properly.
  2. Blend the ingredients: In a high-speed blender, add the peeled and pitted avocados. Scoop out the solid part of the refrigerated coconut milk into the blender, reserving the liquid part for another use such as a smoothie. Add the frozen banana, maple syrup, lemon juice, and fresh mint leaves. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Freeze the mixture: Pour the blended mixture into the chilled loaf pan and use the back of a spoon to spread evenly. Place the pan in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.
  4. Serve: For best texture and flavor, remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it soften at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before scooping and serving.

Notes

  • Refrigerate the coconut milk overnight to separate the cream for a richer texture.
  • Frozen banana helps create a creamy consistency without added dairy.
  • Maple syrup can be adjusted based on desired sweetness.
  • The liquid coconut milk saved can be used in smoothies or other recipes.
  • Allowing the ice cream to soften before serving improves scoopability and flavor release.
