Instructions
- Place a 9x5 inch loaf pan in the freezer for 30 minutes before making the ice cream.
- Place the coconut milk, avocados, banana, maple syrup, lime juice, and Kosher salt in a food processor and puree until all the ingredients are smooth for approximately 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl halfway through processing so that all the ingredients are pureed.
- Add the lime zest and pulse into the mixture for a couple of “bursts.”
- Transfer the mixture to the loaf pan and smooth it out evenly. Cover with stretch film, removing as much air as possible.
- Place the covered ice cream into the freezer for at least 4 hours before serving.
- Remove it from the freezer 15 minutes before serving for it to soften. Scoop into bowls (or coconut bowls) and garnish with coconut flakes, if preferred.

Notes
- This recipe yields a little less than 1-quart ice cream.
- : This recipe was tested both with canned coconut milk and canned coconut cream. We prefer the version made with the milk better as the version made with cream had an overwhelming coconut taste whereas the milk version allowed the avocado flavors to shine.
- Be sure to store in an airtight container, cover it tightly and consume within 5-7 days.
