Move over banana ice cream, there’s a new fruit-based ice cream in town. It’s avocado ice cream, aka ice cream made with creamy avocados and it’s the bomb.  “The bomb” isn’t really in my everyday vocabulary, but there’s really no better way to describe this delicious, creamy treat.

I love banana ice cream and make it frequently during the summer months (my faves: healthy chocolate banana ice cream and oatmeal raisin cookie dough ice cream), but I know there are people out there who don’t like bananas.

What Does Avocado Ice Cream Taste Like?

Lucky for you, avocados have a super mild flavor so your avocado ice cream will taste like the flavors and toppings you mix in. I love adding peppermint extract and chocolate chips for a mint chip variation but the options are endless!

Ingredients in Avocado Ice Cream

• ripe avocados
• unsweetened vanilla Almond Breeze almondmilk
• liquid sweetener – I like to use maple syrup but feel free to use your sweetener of choice!
• coconut oil
• peppermint extract
• mini chocolate chips – I like to buy the EnjoyLife dairy-free chocolate chips.

How to Make Avocado Ice Cream

One of the best parts about this avocado ice cream recipe is how simple it is! And! You don’t need an ice cream maker… just a high powered blender or food processor. Add all of the ingredients except the chocolate chips into your blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Stir in the chocolate chips and transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container. I lined a loaf pan with parchment paper! Put the container in the freezer for 4-5 hours so the ice cream can set. Top with your favorite ingredients and enjoy!
