Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) coconut milk
Sweeteners:
- 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 milliliters) honey or maple syrup
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Transfer frozen pineapple chunks into a high-powered food processor, ensuring all pieces are evenly distributed.
- Pulse the frozen pineapple for 2-3 minutes, periodically stopping to scrape down the sides with a spatula to create a uniform texture.
- Stream in coconut milk, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract while the processor continues to blend, maintaining a steady speed.
- Process the mixture until it transforms into a velvety, smooth consistency with no visible chunks, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- For a soft, pillowy texture, scoop the mixture directly into serving bowls and enjoy immediately.
- For a more dense, traditional ice cream texture, transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container and chill for 1-2 hours until it reaches desired firmness.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh pineapple pieces, toasted coconut flakes, or a light drizzle of honey before serving for added visual appeal and flavor complexity.
Notes
- Swap honey or maple syrup with agave nectar for a different sweetness profile.
- Ensure pineapple chunks are completely frozen for the best texture and creamy consistency.
- Use full-fat coconut milk to achieve a richer, more luxurious mouthfeel in the soft serve.
- For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder during blending to transform the dessert into a more nutritious treat.
