4-Ingredient Vegan Avocado Ice Cream Recipe + VIDEO
Description
The 4-Ingredient Vegan Avocado Ice Cream Recipe uses ripe Hass avocados as the base along with full-fat coconut milk for creaminess, granulated sugar for sweetness, and fresh lime juice to add a refreshing note. The coconut milk and sugar are gently heated until the sugar dissolves, then blended with the avocado flesh and lime juice to create a silky mixture. After chilling, the blend is churned in an ice cream machine for 20-25 minutes to achieve a creamy frozen dessert.
This ice cream offers a smooth and rich texture with the natural fats from avocado and coconut milk, balanced by the fresh acidity of lime. The subtle sweetness allows the avocado flavor to stand out without being overpowering. It is suitable as a vegan alternative to traditional ice cream.
Options include stirring in ingredients such as lime zest, graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, or chocolate shavings after churning to add texture and extra flavor. The ice cream should be stored in an airtight, freezer-safe container and can be kept for up to three months.
Ingredients
- 3 avocado ripe Hass
- 27 ounces coconut milk full-fat, unsweetened
- 1 ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lime juice fresh
Instructions
- Place the coconut milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt in medium saucepot. Set over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves and the coconut milk is perfectly smooth. The moment the mixture is smooth, turn off the heat. (The hotter the mixture is, the more time it takes to cool.)
- Pour the coconut milk into the blender. Pit the avocados and scoop the flesh out of the skins. Then add the avocado flesh and lime juice to the blender. Cover and puree until smooth.
- If the mixture is warm, chill to room temperature or cooler.
- Once the ice cream mixture is cool, pour it into an electric ice cream machine. Set and churn for 20-25 minutes.
- Serve immediately or move to an airtight container and freeze until ready to serve.
Notes
- To add variety, mix in lime zest or toppings like graham cracker crumbs, shredded coconut, or chocolate shavings after churning.
- Store the finished ice cream in a sealed, freezer-safe container for up to 3 months to maintain quality.
