This keto avocado ice cream is so creamy! My easy chocolate avocado ice cream recipe contains 5 ingredients and it is only 4.9 net carbs per serving. No ice cream maker necessary.

Do you hide vegetables in meals? If you have children, I'd say that's a yes. Kids are notorious for refusing dishes that look too obviously healthy/too green. When they are very small, they can still be fooled ("have another of the green French fries!"), but as they grow, the discussion about why veggies are important can become quite a bore. The easy route out of the dilemma is to "healthify" their favourite food. If you chop finely enough, there will be no complaints!
I never tire of the moment after the meal when they tell you the food was nice (you do have to ask them for this information, it is rarely offers on its own accord) and you list exactly how many vegetables they have just eaten. Eventually they WILL stop announcing they do not like beans/carrots/*add their most despised vegetable*. Well, maybe this stops at Brussels sprouts.

Over the years, I have perfected my Bolognese sauce by adding an insane amount of vegetables from zucchini to red pepper. Zucchini with its mild, unimposing taste is a real chameleon - it works perfectly in any tomato-based dish, but can also be used in baking (watch that space!). Another great candidate for hidden veggie overload are meaty stews. Especially the rich flavour of beef successfully masks the taste of celery, carrots or mushrooms. And in turn, it's the vegetables that take the broth to the next level. And when you round it off with a veggie dessert such as these pumpkin brownies or some low carb zucchini muffins, you can bask in feeling like a super-mom.
Enter chocolate avocado ice cream.
Avocado with its rich, creamy texture is the ideal candidate for no-bake desserts. On top of that, it has a insane amount of health benefits. Avocado is...
- packed with more potassium than bananas
- loaded with healthy fatty acids
- full of fibre
- brimming with antioxidants.
A study has even found that people who eat avocado tend to be healthier. Have I convinced you now?

I have posted this chocolate avocado mousse already, which is a ridiculously easy dessert. Avocado and chocolate work just so well together. Combined they are rich and indulgent, yet with a pleasingly fresh note. Chocolate avocado ice cream seemed the next natural step, even though it's February. Or maybe because it's February. Don't we all need something to look forward to?
I don't have an ice-cream maker - if you do, you can still use this recipe and probably get an impossibly silky result. But it works just as well without. All you need is a little more planning and patience. Enjoy!

This is brilliant! So creamy and chocolaty that i want to dive right in! I still have yet to use avocado in a dessert, so I think it's time to try it.
Georgina
This is SO sneaky! My son loves ice cream but is in that classic "nothing green" phase. This is perfect!
Katrin
I even fooled my daughter. The great thing about cocoa is that the taste is so strong it masks the avocado perfectly
Kim | Low Carb Maven
Avocado ice cream is one of my faves - so silky and creamy. I'm lucky that my kids like vegetables and eat them, but it wasn't always the case. I, too, had to hide them. Great post!
Maya | Wholesome Yum
Always looking for new ways to hide veggies! Can't wait to try this!
Katrin
It is such an easy recipe, Maya. Hope you'll give it a go!
ToniAnn
Looks real good!
Katrin
Thank you so much. Do let me know if you try it out!
Sarah @ Champagne Tastes
This is beautiful! I had some avocado chocolate pudding awhile back, and it was still a teeny bit green, and it just wasn't doing it for me. I love that this LOOKS like chocolate! I'm sure it's delicious!
Katrin
The trick is to make it really chocolatey...
Christine
I love to hide veggies in recipes as well! Looks like a delicious ice cream!
Katrin
We're on the same page here!
Tina Dawson | Love is in my Tummy
I wonder if I can make this Vegan and substitute the cream with coconut cream? Do you think that'd work?
Katrin
I am absolutely sure it would be just as nice.
Erren
You had me at chocolate ice cream! I love this recipe!
Katrin
Yay! Thanks!

I feel fortunate because I've never had to hide my vegetables in anything -- I put the kale right out there -- and my family eats it. I've never tried avocado in ice cream before -- I know it mimics a creamy smooth texture - might have to give it a shot.
Katrin
You are one lucky mummy, Lisa. Saying that, my daughter likes crispy kale as well. And chocolate avo ice cream..
Bambi
Hi, how many servings does this make? And how many grams weigh of cubes avocado?? Recipe look awesome but I only need to make 2 servings and this might make 6 or 8, I don’t know!
Katrin
This ice cream is filling. I'd just halve the recipe and use 1 avocado. Eat as much as you'd like and keep the rest for another time. Always good to have a backup dessert in the freezer!
