Avocado Gelato | Recreating Instagram Trending Recipes | Does it work? :-)

in food •  6 years ago  (edited)


Hey guys! So I saw this video on Instagram that made these cute avocado gelato and it seemed too good to pass up. I did some research and also found the recipe, which I will link to. But let me tell you, it was a challenge. But hey at least now I'll have avocado gelato on hand as a healthy treat for a few weeks. Thanks for watching the video, hope you give it a try and put your own spin on it (I would probably sweeten it a bit more next time).

Ingredients:
2 3 oz. Chocolate Bar (melted)
6 ripe Avocados
1 13.5 oz can Coconut Cream
2 T Honey (add more if you want your gelato sweeter)
1 T Lime Juice

Tools:
misc. utensils
blender: https://amzn.to/2qjBPA1
Pyrex Bowl 3 set: https://amzn.to/2RakAgR
All Clad Sauce Pan 3qt: https://amzn.to/2EcNVF6
spatula

Instructions:

Scoop out the middles of six avocdos and wipe the inside of the shells clean.
Melt your chocolate on top of a double boiler on low heat. Pour melted chocolate into the hollowed-out shells and using a spoon make sure every bit is covered. Once the shell is coated set them aside to cool and set.
In a blender, blend the six avocados, coconut cream, honey, and lime. Blend it all together until you’ve got your avocado gelato.
Began to fill each chocolate shell with the avocado gelato. Use an offset spatula to smooth out the gelato. Be sure to save some of this for later! Freeze them for an hour. Take a tablespoon (or a teaspoon if your avocados are on the smaller side) and scoop out a hole for the pit.
Place the filled shells in the freezer to let the gelato and chocolate shell fully set.
Combine the avocado gelato with the leftover melted chocolate. Scoop with tablespoons or teaspoons (whichever size you used to scoop out the gelato). You’ll need two scoops per avocado that you’re making. Add place each half scoop in a parchment paper and let it freeze up (it took mine about an hour). Combine the two halves by gently rubbing the sides to form a sphere. Place a sphere into each avocado half.
Once you know your chocolate and gelato has fully set, use a spoon to scoop out the chocolate shell from the avocado peel and enjoy!

Greetings, dear Lydia

Missing. Well cool your tutorial on the avocado ice cream. In addition to learning from your video how to make this recipe, I learned one more word in English. Funny that I looked at the picture and knew I discovered how to write "abacate" in English. I did not remember the name of the fruit in Portuguese. I had to write in English on google translator to appear and Portuguese for me hahaha.

Thank you and good morning!!!!!

abacate!!! lol yeah thats cool you get to learn how to make food and learn English its a win win for Juliano! :-)

I love the avocado is very rich in nutrients and is also very versatile to prepare different dishes @alphasteem

Yes :-) ❤️😁 Thanks @yanirauseche

I love avocado ice cream :) Looks fabulous and well make ❤
How many days can be eaten in the refrigerator?

Well you can keep it in the freezer so really a pretty long time if you want :-)

Thanks for watching ykdesign! ❤️

Oh my! This is damn cooooool! This is really coooool haha Fun to watch and eat but not so sure if I would have much patience to do that myself. I love avocado and with chocolate so good also. I used to make a frappe avocado//chocolate and sometimes avocado/peanut butter. This is super cool!

haha. You are so cool! Yeah it looks pretty cool though, you don't have to make the whole thing you can just blend the avocado 🥑 and pour some melted chocolate on it then freeze it then eat it :-) ❤️

Even though it's freezing cold here, I would not say no to some of that!!!

lol! Well you can have it inside by the heater now :-)

hahaha such a cool idea!!! :) Great job!

haha thanks Mr Chef! 👨‍🍳 kind of thinking to do a mini series of instagram trending recipe vids. Might be a cool little flare to the channel 😁

You are welcome! Yes doing videos on trending topics is a great way to get exposure! :)

fat, carbs, fat, carbs and fat. I mean .... APPROVED! :D

Yes! haha You know whats good 😀

Oh my that looks so yummy! I've tried making avocado gelato before a couple of times already but my ingredients were more simpler just avocado, cream, and condensed milk. I bet this recipe of yours would be more tastier. I'll try to make this later and see if it's as delicious as it looks on your video. :)

@paintingangels.. hey.. avocado ice cream!!! oooh.. this is cool :) .. I should try it :D

Avocado is one of my fave fruit to eat!

Thanks for the video, I feel so nice when I see videos non related to most topics we have, we need more creative videos like this one. Let's enjoy our life in the end. We live only once. So much serious topics we had lately. I'm really tired about all that. We need more creativity in dtube. More people like you. I hope you will make such videos more often, so others will take the exmaple. I still remember that you were the dlive star and now you should be the dtube star as well. ☺

Hey @clixmoney, thanks for the complements. It was a hard one to make lol. I have been making videos non related to steemit for a long time because I believe its good for a couple things: 1) I personally don't think dtube will grow with, only steemit related content. 2) Niche videos are needed because outsiders always come looking for certain niches. 3) It's helps promote my brand Modern Farmhouse Kitchen outside of steemit also. I know thats a big no no for others but people have to make a living and multiple sources of income is always a smart move. Thanks again!

It looks so yummy, I never tasted the avocado as a dessert. Me encanta el aguacate!!! Fabuluos recipes.
