Dairy Free Avocado Coconut Ice-cream
Avocado Ice Cream is nothing new, raw foodies have been making it for years, but this one is so delicious it may surprise you. Especially if you churn
Avocado ice cream may sound a little weird as we generally associate avocado's with all things Mexican and savoury, chip dipping etc. However, due to their high fat content, you will find they make a fantastic creamy ice cream base, be it very green! Pretty green, but green. Go for your life and start adding any other flavours you wish, we used lime zest and juice as well as vanilla here, but leave them out and add cocoa powder, melted chocolate, essential oils or other inclusions that are all discussed in The Whole Scoop course. The sky is the limit and you can tell your kids this is blended frog ice cream. They will love that. (Don't take my word for it though!)
Dairy free, gluten free, egg free, nut free and vegan but still delicious ice cream. (Mint works really well as your mind wants this to be mint because of the colour!)
