Step 1. Cut a ripe avocado
Wrap it in foil or plastic food wrap.
Step 2. Put everything in the freezer
Step 3. Once frozen, put it in a sealable plastic bag
Label and date the pouch.
Step 4. To defrost, place the avocado at room temperature for about an hour or microwave it on a low setting or on a low setting for less than a minute
The result is suitable for making guacamole, chocolate pudding, cookie dough, etc.
Tips
- Whole avocados cannot be frozen as they will turn into a messy, mushy pulp. Avocado slices and slices can't either. Avocados that want to be frozen must be mashed or pureed first.
- White vinegar can be used instead of lemon or lime juice. The lime juice or vinegar will prevent the avocado from browning.
