This no-churn avocado ice cream is easy to make—no ice cream machine required! You’ll need to assemble your Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer with the blank strainer to achieve the silky-smooth ice cream consistency.
Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado, cubed and frozen
- 1 ½ very ripe bananas, sliced and frozen
- ⅓ cup full-fat coconut milk
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 3-4 large mint leaves
- Pinch of salt
Serves 4.
Product Needed
Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer, assembled with the blank strainer.
Directions
-
Thaw the frozen ingredients for 5 minutes.
-
Combine the coconut milk, maple syrup, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl with a spout (we used our juice cup).
-
Place the pulp cup under the juicer’s spout. Open the smart cap.
-
Turn on the juicer. Add a piece of avocado, a piece of banana, a bit of the coconut milk mixture, and a mint leaf. Continue alternating the ingredients. Be sure to add the ingredients slowly to prevent build-up.
-
After all ingredients are added, let the juicer run for an additional 30 seconds. Turn off the juicer. Close the smart cap to prevent drips.
-
Mix the extruded ice cream with a spoon to fully combine the flavors.
-
Enjoy the soft-serve-like avocado ice cream as is, or transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 4 hours. Let soften for a few minutes before scooping and serving. Store for up to 1 week.
Flavor Variations
-
Chocolate: Use ½ an avocado and 1 banana. Add 6 tbsp of cocoa powder and 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the coconut milk mixture. Omit the mint leaves.
-
Mint chocolate chip: Add 2-3 additional mint leaves when juicing. After the ice cream is extruded and mixed, fold in ½ cup chocolate chips or chunks.
-
Citrus: Add 1 tbsp of lemon zest or orange zest to the coconut milk mixture before juicing.
