Homemade Pineapple Soft Serve Ice Cream


  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Diet: Vegetarian

Description

A creamy, tropical soft serve made with frozen pineapple and coconut milk, brightened with lemon and vanilla, ready in minutes using a blender.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare your equipment and ensure the blender is ready for frozen fruit.
  2. Place frozen pineapple, coconut milk, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lemon juice into the blender.
  3. Pulse and blend, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula so everything mixes evenly.
  4. Continue blending until the mixture is silky and has the texture of soft serve, adding a tablespoon of extra liquid only if necessary to help the blades move.
  5. Transfer the soft serve to a piping bag or scoop directly into chilled bowls or cones for immediate serving.
  6. For scoopable ice cream, place the mixture in a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1 to 2 hours until firm enough to scoop.
  7. If frozen solid, let sit at room temperature 5 to 10 minutes before scooping to soften slightly.

Notes

  • Freeze pineapple in a single layer on a tray to avoid clumping and make blending easier.
  • Chill serving bowls or cones to help the swirls hold their shape longer.
  • Adjust sweetener to taste, especially if pineapple is very ripe and sweet.
  • For extra creaminess, add one frozen banana to the blend.
