How to Make Avocado Oil at Home

by

🌟 Tips:

  • Use Hass avocados for best oil content.
  • You can also sun-dry the paste instead of heating it, but it takes longer.
  • Homemade avocado oil is great for salads, sautéing, or skin care.

🧺 Ingredients:

  • 5–10 ripe avocados (the more, the better the yield)

👨‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Prepare the Avocados

  • Wash and peel the avocados.
  • Remove the pits and scoop out the flesh into a bowl.

2. Mash the Flesh

  • Use a blender or fork to mash the avocado into a smooth paste.

3. Heat the Paste

  • Spread the paste in a wide pan and heat on low for 45–60 minutes.
  • Stir occasionally. The paste will darken and release oil.

4. Cool and Strain

  • Let the mixture cool.
  • Place it in a cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer and squeeze out the oil into a clean bowl.

5. Store the Oil

  • Pour the oil into a glass jar or bottle.
  • Store in a cool, dark place or refrigerate for longer shelf life.

🌟 Tips:
