This fresh and surprisingly tasty combination of strawberries and fresh basil leaves is perfect for balmy summer evenings.

Do you know the famous key lime pie? This is the ice cream version of it! Thanks to the avocado, the ice cream becomes creamy and at the same time contains fiber, healthy fats and vitamins A and E. There is also potassium in the ice cream thanks to the banana and avocado, which you will not find in the freezer section of the supermarket. The potassium helps your body retain moisture, which is of course very nice on a hot day. And it tastes really good too!
Are you a fan of chocolate and mint? This is the combination for you! When you make this ice cream with bananas as a base and a little bit of peppermint extract, it is not only incredibly tasty, but also (of course) sweet. In addition, bananas contain potassium and there are antioxidants in the cocoa powder – win-win! There is also a lot of fiber in this ice cream (3 grams per serving), so that you are full for longer and your blood sugar level stays up.
You can make this ice cream based on raspberries, bananas and a scoop of protein powder of your choice. Mix everything with coconut milk for a plant-based version of this creamy ice cream, which also gives you a lot of fiber.

Those who cannot eat lactose have also been thought of:this delicious lactose-free ice cream will make all your dreams come true! The sweet bananas and creamy coconut milk form the basis of this delicious ice cream. The raw macadamia nuts balance the coconut flavor and give the ice cream a little crunch. Health benefit? The nuts contain healthy fats, which makes you full faster!
Did you know that avocado in itself is also a delicious ingredient for making ice cream? Use a ripe avocado in combination with coconut milk for ice cream for fiber and vitamins A &E. Mix in fresh mint leaves for a fresh taste and use bananas for a natural sweetness. Yes, there are a lot of (healthy) fats in this ice cream, but if you take a small portion, it remains a healthier alternative to supermarket ice cream, trust us.
A fan of iced coffee? Then you will also love this ice cream flavor! Because you make the ice cream yourself with freshly brewed coffee and a type of cream of your choice, there are not nearly as many added sugars as in ice cream with coffee flavor from the supermarket. Add a little cocoa or even pieces of dark chocolate for an extra flavor dimension and extra antioxidants, which have an anti-inflammatory effect. Tasty and healthy!
