Avocado Pistachio Ice Cream
This homemade ice cream combines creamy avocados with crunchy pistachios, inspired by "sorbetes" or "dirty ice cream" in the Philippines.
Equipment
Ice Cream Maker
Blender (Optional)
9x5x3 loaf pan or a 2-quart freezer-safe container
Ingredients
3 tablespoons tapioca flour (see note)
⅔ cup granulated sugar more to taste
1 cup water
2 cups heavy cream sub: full-fat coconut milk/cream or half-and-half
2 large avocados (or 3 medium)
½ cup pistachios chopped
Instructions
1. Combine tapioca starch, sugar, water, and heavy cream in a saucepan. Mix until well combined.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and simmer the mixture for 8-10 minutes, stirring constantly. When it slightly thickens and coats the back of a spoon, remove it from the heat.
3. Mash the avocados in a bowl or blend them until smooth or slightly chunky.
4. Combine the cream mixture and avocados, mixing until well combined.
5. Transfer the mixture to a container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until completely chilled.
6. Churn the chilled mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency. Add the pistachios gradually toward the end.
7. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface, then cover it completely to prevent ice crystals from forming. Store it in the coldest part of your freezer.
8. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before scooping. Serve and enjoy!
