Hello my Steemians! I hope your day is doing well. I wanna share to you my recipe for today called Avolato (Avocado gelato).
So what about this "Avolato" that's famous in UK? Well, this healthy dessert is an avocado-based ice cream which is served in a real avocado shell like this. (Sorry mine is an epic fail) Lol.
So I was curious about how they make it. The edible nut that looks like the real avocado seed is made up of nuts, peanut butter and some milk and the avocado filling with blended avocados, milk, honey and lemon.
All in all it's sort of artistic and unique. But unfortunately mine is a fail, lol. I don't have peanut butter so I only used coconut milk and it melted out during my photoshoot. :'D
Watch this VIDEO for a full recipe adventure!
So I said yes to this food challenge. I made my own version of it, though the seed was a fail but the avolato? Oh yes it tasted sooo deng good! Alright, so here's the recipe. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
- 3 ripe avocados
- 2 1/2 cups coconut milk
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1 cup almonds
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tsp vanilla
DIRECTIONS
- Cut avocado into halves. Remover the seed and scrape the avocado meat. Reserve avocado shells for later and refrigerate.
- Add scraped avocado to blender. Add 2 cups coconut milk, 3/4 cup coconut sugar and 1 tsp vanilla . Pulse until smooth in consistency.
- Pour into a container and refrigerate for 4 hrs.
- Blend almonds, coconut oil, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1/4 cup coconut sugar until smooth.
- Pour into a container and refrigerate for 4 hrs.
- Fill avocado shells with avocado gelato. Using a spatula, flatten out the upper surface. Scoop the center and add the almond nut gelato seed.
- Refrigerate for 20 mins and serve immediately.
:-)
See you on the next cookntell.
Love,
Jayne

Watch More of My Recipe VIDEOS!
I have to be honest with you guys. I don't really call it vain or self adornment but I am just addicted to watch my food videos. It feels like a meditation for me. I'm not talking about myself making the video itself but what actually it is is basically the sound and art in the kitchen. The sound of the fork, the spoon, the knife, the cutting board, the water, the mixing, the squeezing, the blending and everything in it sounds like in a grand symphony: a kitchen live music. For me, it is just sooo soothing. It's the reason why I put audio on my videos so you guys can experience a different way to watch too. So I wanna share you some of videos here:

Thank you @noemilunastorta for visiting. :-) Much appreciated.
Even though it's a fail optically, I'm sure the taste was very good and that's what counts too, doesn't it? :)
hehe. Thanks @delishtreats I love the avolato. It's one of my favourite desserts. Of course it tasted good. :-)
I have never tried it @cookntell but planning to do so on my next trip to the UK :) I haven't found avolato in Switzerland yet..
Hmm... that's very interesting. I've never heard of Avolato before. I have 4 avocado trees, so when they ripen I can get a bunch. When I do I think I'm gonna have to try this recipe. It sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing!
Oh my! You are so lucky for having an avocado tree! If that's the case you don't need to buy avocado ice cream then. :-) If you're trying it out, let me know how it goes. :-) Thanks for dropping by.
oh dear this look is awesome i will make a one day for vegan almond avolato taste this recipe keep it up your work god bless you
Thanks @kingshahrukh fro visiting! Have a nice day. :-)
It does look deng good over here, too bad avocados are not cheap here, else I'll do that everyday!
Thanks @roselifecoach fro dropping by. Well you can still make it some time. :-)
Yes I will, whenever I can grab some avocado!
I don't mean to be rude but Ice cream and gelato are not one and the same.
Thanks a lot for sharing the pictures and the recipe. Looks truly delicious and I'm definitely going to try this out
Hi @technological thanks for dropping by. I see that. I don't mean to be rude too but as far as I can remember Gelato is the Italian word for ice cream. BTW for this recipe, I made a coppycat of Avocado Gelato from Selfridge. If you want you can look it up ( Avo-lato by Selfridges) Have a good day! :-)
I am aware of that.
Ok. I will look for it. Avocado has plenty of health benefits. It seems to be the perfect way to consume it on a regular basis.
