What You’ll Need
- 4 cups (16 oz/450 g) chopped frozen pineapple (ensure it’s fully frozen for the best texture)
- 1 cup (8 oz/225 g) coconut milk (low fat or full fat, depending on your preference)
How to Make It
- Prepare the ingredients: Add the frozen pineapple and coconut milk to a food processor or high-powered blender.
- Blend until creamy: Turn on the food processor and blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. Tip: Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides with a spatula to ensure even blending.
- Check the consistency: Continue blending until all pineapple chunks are gone and the mixture is completely smooth.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy right away for a soft-serve texture. Note: If you freeze it, it will become solid and lose its soft-serve consistency.
Toppings and Twists to Elevate Your Dole Whip
Take your Dole Whip to the next level with fun toppings and mix-ins! Try adding a drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce, a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes, or a handful of fresh berries. For a tropical twist, blend in a handful of frozen mango or passionfruit pulp for a fruity variation.
Perfect Pairings for Your Pineapple Treat
Serve your Dole Whip in a hollowed-out pineapple half for a fun, Instagram-worthy presentation. Pair it with a side of grilled pineapple slices or a tropical fruit salad for a refreshing dessert. It’s also a great companion to vanilla wafers or shortbread cookies for a sweet crunch.
Quick Tips for the Creamiest Consistency
For the smoothest Dole Whip, make sure your pineapple is fully frozen and your coconut milk is chilled. If your blender struggles, add a splash of pineapple juice to help it blend. Stop and scrape down the sides frequently to ensure no chunks are left behind.
How to Store (and Enjoy Later)
While Dole Whip is best enjoyed fresh, you can freeze leftovers in an airtight container. Let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping, or blend it briefly to restore its creamy texture. Keep in mind it won’t be as soft as when freshly made.
Equipment Essentials for the Best Results
A high-powered blender or food processor is key for achieving that signature creamy texture. If you’re making this often, consider investing in a Yonanas machine or a soft serve maker for even easier prep and a more authentic soft-serve feel.
