Ingredients
- 3 large ripe avocados
- 400 ml full-fat coconut milk
- 6 pitted Medjool dates
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Start by ensuring all ingredients are ready. Pit the Medjool dates and set them aside. Scoop the flesh out of the avocados and discard the skins and seeds.
Step 2
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the avocados, coconut milk, pitted dates, lime juice, lime zest, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt.
Step 3
Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. This may take about 1-2 minutes, depending on your blender.
Step 4
Taste the mixture and adjust if necessary—you might want to add more lime juice or a pinch of salt, depending on your preference.
Step 5
Once smooth, pour the mixture into a chilled ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes until the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Step 6
If you prefer a firmer ice cream, transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and place it in the freezer for about 2 hours.
Step 7
Before serving, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly for easy scooping.
Step 8
Serve the creamy avocado ice cream in bowls and enjoy this refreshing Whole30-compliant treat!
