This is as close to savoury ice cream as you’ll ever get. And what kid doesn’t like ice cream? And the best thing about this recipe is that you can change up the flavours anytime you like, just like ice cream.
Let’s rock.

Gluten free
Gluten-free flatbreads also work a treat– these days there are so many to choose from.

Dairy free
Try a plant-based cheddar for a dairy- free wrap.

Vego/vegan
You can totally lose the ham and replace it with vegan options such as facon (fake bacon) – just avoid the ultra-processed brands.

Fussy eaters
The concept of having lunch in a cone is what rocks the little humans – feel free to fill the cones with your fussy eater’s fav ingredients. A simple ham, cheese and lettuce trio could also be used.

Directions

You can cook the flatbreads in an air fryer or the oven.

If cooking in the oven, preheat to 180°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Place the flatbreads on the baking tray and top each one with a slice of cheese and a slice of ham.

Now, I want you think about an ice cream cone – that’s what we are about to create. Roll the flatbread up with the ingredients inside so it has a pointy end (remember: think cone) and an open end. Grab a skewer and pierce it right through so the shape holds. Pop the cones into the oven to cook for 6 minutes. If using an air fryer, cook at 180°C for 3 minutes.

In the meantime, scoop the avocado flesh into a ziplock bag, expelling as much air as possible, and seal the seam.

Bash the avo around a little until it is mashed and there are no big bits. We are going to use the ziplock bag as a piping bag, so stand by.

Once the cones are out of the oven remove the skewers.

Put the four whole cherry tomatoes aside, then distribute the rest between the cones.

Snip the bottom corner off the ziplock bag with scissors – you’re about to become a piping master.

Start filling the cones with the mashed avo – when you get to the top you can add a decorative swirl or two. Now add the pièce de résistance: the cherry (tomato) on top.

Place two cones head-to-tail side by side in each lunchbox – they will sit nice and snug like this and won’t spill.
