I scream, You scream, We all scream for... Avocado?!

Avocado Gelato

 

Ingredients

• 3 cups whole milk or 2% milk
• 6 egg yolks
• 1/2 cup honey
• 2  avocados, peeled and pitted
• 2 teaspoon lime juice

Directions

1.  In a large saucepan combined egg yolks, 1-1/2 cups of milk and honey.
2. Cook and whisk over very low heat until mixture sticks to the metal utensil. Be very careful not to cook the eggs.
3. Remove from heat and gradually mix in the remaining 1-1/2 cups of milk.
4. Cover and chill in the refrigerator overnight or place the saucepan in an ice bath until completely chilled.
5. Next morning blend together avocados and lime juice and custard until completely smooth.
6. Freeze in a 2 quart ice cream maker according to manufacturers directions.
7. This recipe makes around 1 to 2 quarts of gelato. These gelato recipes can be adjusted to make a smaller portion but I always say if you’re going to make it you might as well make enough.

I LOVE this gelato and so does my son.. I just need to make an almond milk version for him... I like to mix nutmeg in mine (add this when heating the custard).  Top with dark chocolate covered hazelnuts... if you dare! ENJOY!
