This is something I made up on the fly one day for breakfast to try and use up an overly ripe avocado. Freeze for 1 hour for a more ice cream-like treat.

  • Refrigerate avocado mixture for 1 hour before serving.

Cook's Notes:

You may top with or mix in roasted, salted almonds, peanuts, or other nut snack.

You may also use fresh berries as a topping or mix them in, if you have carbs left (or aren't on keto).

You can also reduce (or omit) the stevia extract, and use the sugar-free (or regular, if you're not avoiding carbs) flavored syrups, such as Torani(R).

I liked this; the cinnamon and vanilla gave it a nice flavor. I'm not a big fan of avocado smoothies, but one serving of this frozen for a couple of hours was good. It was just enough to have with my breakfast, or it would be nice by itself as a snack between meals. Read More

I made the recipe as directed, and while there are differences in sizes of avocado, I think I had an average size. I wanted to like this as I love avocado and everything else that went into this easy dessert, but after freezing I found it barely edible. I left half to thaw out and added more of all the other ingredients and found it quite tasty, so I will probably make it again my own way, but it definitely needs more sweetness to it and more cinnamon. I may even add ginger and play around with it. Thanks for the idea. Read More

I love this! I added a little bit more cinnamon just because I liked the way it blended with the avocado. I tried it chilled and frozen, and I actually prefer it frozen. I think it would taste good over some wheat toast chilled. I wish there were more avocado dessert recipes like this! Read More

This was ok. I prefer chocolate avocado pudding better. I whipped up the cream/vanilla/non-refined sugar first then folded into the creamed avocado and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Read More

I made this with almond extract for flavoring instead of cinnamon and used too much. The recipe has a nice texture and I will probably make again. Read More
