Gulkand Avocado Pistachio Icecream!

Gulkand Avocado Pistachio Icecream 
I love this recipe since its made with coconut milk and so dairy-free. This is extremely healthy for kids as Avocados are full of green goodness. 

Avocado protects our kids from various infections as it contains adequate unsaturated fats and so including avocados in her diet will be very beneficial especially in summer as it is the best way to treat them with a nutritious dessert :)! 


With just 4 main and healthy ingredients - Avocado, Gulkand, Pistachio, and Coconut milk, this dairy-free ice cream is creamy and oh so yummy! Gulkand is a rose petal jam. According to Ayurveda, it has a cooling effect on the body so this makes it a perfect, guilt-free dessert for the summer. It is readily available in Indian grocery stores. This easy recipe requires no churning either.


Delectable, dairy-free, gluten-free, guilt-free,egg-less ice cream with just 4 main, healthy ingredients. No churning required! The vegan alternative in the recipe, as well.




Gulkand Avocado Pistachio Icecream - Coconut milk

Ingredients
  • 1 ripe avocado, pitted and mashed
  • 3 tablespoons coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
  • 3/4 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • Touch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon good quality Gulkand/ Rose petal jam
  • 1 to 2 tablespoon roasted unsalted pistachio
Instructions / Method:
  1. In a blender, blend the mashed avocado with the coconut milk, honey, lime juice, and salt until the avocado is well blended and creamy. Do not add any water. I had to stop the blender and stir with a spatula a couple of times to make sure that there are no avocado lumps in the mixture.
  2. Remove the mixture to a glass /freezable container.
  3. Stir the Gulkand and pistachio into the ice cream mixture.
  4. Cover the container tightly with plastic wrap and then cover with its tight-fitting lid.
  5. Freeze the mixture for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.
  6. When serving, let the ice cream sit on the counter for a minute or two, so it is easy to scoop.
Enjoy your guilt-free treat!
