Avocado Ice Cream Recipe without Ice Cream Maker | Healthy Avocado Ice Cream Recipe

Ice creams are my favorite. But they are rich in fats and sugars. As I have PCOS, I must skip sugars and bad fats. They are not good for losing weight with PCOS. So I thought it is better to make low fat ice creams at home. I started finding out recipes of ice creams low in fat or ice creams with some good fat. This Avocado and Mint ice cream is first among them. I referred this recipe in eatingbirdfood and modified as per my taste.

As the flavor of avocado is a bit blunt, I used mint to enrich the flavor. For enhancing taste, I have added lemon juice. Just for making it tastier, I am adding very little sugar. This ice cream can be made without ice cream maker.

If you see the texture of this ice cream, it will be very very creamy. The texture is similar to regular ice creams. After lunch or dinner, you can have this dessert. It is a guiltless dessert.

To make it as a diabetic friendly dessert, skip sugar or reduce it to half. If you would like to see some other low fat dessert or diabetic friendly dessert, refer these Strawberry Sorbet, Apple Sandwich and Strawberry Frozen Yogurt.
