This avocado ice cream is vegan and refined sugar free. You only need a blender (no churning here) and some patience as you’ll need to wait 4 torturous hours for it to set. Feel free to add chocolate chips, fresh mint or your favourite nuts once it’s blended.
Ingredients
4 whole | New Zealand Avocados, scooped (Main) |
2 cans | Chantal Organics coconut cream, refrigerated (Main) |
2 | Bananas, sliced and frozen (Main) |
¼ cup | Lemon juice |
⅓ cup | Maple syrup |
1 tsp | Salt |
½ cup | Pistachios, roughly chopped |
Directions
- Blend the avocado pulp until smooth.
- Add the solid coconut cream (it will divide in the fridge, simply discard the liquid or use in another recipe) and blend until smooth.
- Add the bananas, lemon juice, maple syrup and salt and blend until smooth and creamy. Check the sweetness, if you prefer a sweeter ice cream then simply add more maple syrup.
- Pour into the chilled tin and top with chopped pistachios.
- Freeze for 4 hours, or until set. If it freezes solid then simply let it thaw for 10 mins before serving. Scoop into bowls or waffle cones and enjoy.
Note: You will need ametal loaf tin, chilled in the freezer beforehand
