Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe avocados
- 1 inch piece fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 cups milk (any type, dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons chopped pecans (optional for garnish)
- 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the ripe avocados in half and remove the pits. Scoop out the flesh and place it in a blender or food processor.
Peel the fresh ginger and finely grate it. Add the grated ginger to the blender.
Add honey, ground cinnamon, fresh lemon juice, milk, and a pinch of salt to the blender.
Blend the mixture on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Pause to scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is evenly incorporated.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey, if desired.
Spoon the gingery butterfruit mixture into small serving bowls or glasses.
Optionally, top with chopped pecans and a sprinkle of ground nutmeg for added texture and aroma.
Serve immediately as a chilled dessert or let it rest in the fridge for 10-15 minutes for a slightly firmer texture.
