Recipe: Homemade Pineapple Soft Serve
Ingredients:
- 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup coconut milk (or regular milk for creaminess)
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
- Place the frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, honey (if using), and vanilla extract into a high-powered blender or food processor.
- Blend to Perfection:
- Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the blender a few times to ensure even blending.
- Adjust Consistency:
- If the mixture is too thick to blend, add a splash more coconut milk, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
- Create the Swirl:
- Transfer the mixture to a piping bag with a star tip for that iconic swirl. Pipe it into bowls or cups.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve immediately as a soft serve or freeze for 30-60 minutes for a firmer texture.
Enjoy your homemade pineapple soft serve! It’s a healthy and refreshing dessert that’s perfect for any time of the year. 🌴🍍
