Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- In a blender, combine the ripe avocado, roasted pistachios, granulated sugar, coconut milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed. If you’d like, add an extra tablespoon of sugar for sweetness.
- Pour the blended mixture into a mixing bowl. If using an ice cream maker, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to churn the mixture until it reaches a soft-serve consistency (approximately 20-25 minutes).
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into ice cube trays or a shallow dish and freeze for at least 4 hours, stirring every hour to break up the ice crystals.
- Once the sorbet is properly frozen, let it sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes before scooping.
- For the sesame crunch, toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden. Stir frequently to prevent burning, about 3-4 minutes.
- Serve the sorbet in neat scoops, topped with toasted sesame seeds and fresh mint leaves as a simple garnish.
