Homemade Ice Cream

Ice cream, a heavenly dessert... I am sure almost everyone likes it.

One of the most important ingredients of the yummy ice cream is milk/cream. Recently, I have tried my hands (or rather my thermomix) in making homemade ice cream and discover the extend of the cream's role in making a delicious ice cream... Hence, I started to crack my head for replacement for the cream in my homemade ice cream.

Bought a big pineapple last week. The original plan was to make pineapple sorbet.

When the ripen avocado on my counter-top came into my eye-sight just before I blended my pineapple, I knew the solution to the milk-less ice cream. Avocado!!

So here's the results:

Pineapple milk-less Ice Cream
Ingredients: 1 big Pineapple, 1 ripen avocado, cane sugar
Method: Cut the pineapple into cubes and freeze in the freezer beforehand. Put everything in the TM bowl and blend at speed 10 for 3 minutes, using the spatula to stir while it blend. *Freeze the end results for a few hours, then take out and blend again at speed 10 for 2 minute. Repeat * for as many times as needed to reach the desired smooth texture of ice cream, or serve immediately if you are not too particular on the texture.

You can omit the cane sugar if the pineapple is sweet enough, or substitute with rock sugar (need to grind into powder before adding in) or other natural sweetener.

My son and my husband love it! Now I finally have homemade ice cream that I can feed my family without the worry of consuming too much dairy products or other unknown ingredients from the store-bought ones.

Hope you like it too!
