Avocado Gelato

How to make Avocado Gelato | Avocado Gelato is a perfect summer dessert and treat that is bursting with flavours of avocado. It is eggless, rich and deliciously ultra-smooth. It is so easy to make, with minimal ingredients. Well, you might want to call it AVOLATO!

This year we are facing HOTTEST summer ever, and I'm telling you this heat is ridiculous. For any Brits, 30C on holiday is amazing, 30C in UK is unbearable, us British we're not built for this weather. Since beast from the east left us, temperatures keep rising. As soon as I wake up and feel the heat, or put my foot in the garden feels like I am in Italy, not in London. For me it is far too hot to do anything, except just relaxing on the sofa with the fan on and indulging in some chilled or frozen treats!

Because of warmer weather, some of the fruits and vegetables are abundantly available and very inexpensive too, such as mango, pineapple, peach and avocado! We have been binging on avocados, per day between four people almost 8-10 avocados easily finish..at one time I had almost 2 dozens of avocado sitting on my worktop, because of warm weather they were ripening so quickly that I had to make a decision to use them, so settled with Avocado gelato.

On our recent trip to Lake Como, Italy we gorged on gelato. A trip to Italy without gelato is not complete. On every corner, we found Gelateria. I was amazed to see so many flavours, and in 3 days I almost tried ten flavours, for me Mango, Coconut with passionfruit were winners.

Taking inspiration from Italy's gelato, I decided to make Avocado gelato. We couldn't believe how amazing it turned out, the creamiest ice cream ever,  if I have to describe in one word it has to be phenomenal, surely this gelato is not on a healthy side just because there is an avocado in there, it's sheer indulgence!

Notes:-
As I said above we are having sweltering English summer, there was no other way to keep this gelato in a good shape for pictures, so a couple of quick clicks for you guys. I totally take the blame for not taking good pictures, in fact, it nowhere does justice to the yummiest gelato that is there in that bowl.

I have used an ice cream machine to make this recipe.
