This dairy-free, no-churn recipe combines the natural sweetness of frozen bananas with the buttery smoothness of ripe avocado, creating a velvety base enriched with full-fat coconut milk and a splash of vanilla for aromatic depth.

Perfect for vegans, health-conscious eaters, or anyone seeking a refreshing twist on traditional ice cream, this recipe is quick to prepare with minimal effort. Serve it up in scoops, topped with fresh banana slices, a sprinkle of shredded coconut, or a handful of crunchy nuts, and enjoy a dessert thatβs as wholesome as it is delicious!
Peel and slice the bananas. Place them in an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until completely frozen.
Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a blender or food processor.
Add the frozen banana slices to the blender along with the coconut milk, vanilla extract, honey or maple syrup (if using), and lemon juice.
Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. The mixture should resemble a thick pudding in texture.
Transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container, spreading it out evenly. Cover with an airtight lid or plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Freeze for 3 to 4 hours, stirring every hour to ensure even freezing and a smooth texture.
Remove from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly. Use an ice cream scoop to serve into bowls or cones.
Optional: Garnish with sliced banana, shredded coconut, or chopped nuts for added flavor and texture.
