No ice cream maker? No problem! This delicious homemade Dole Whip recipe is a quick healthy dessert that you make right in your blender. Bring Disney to your kitchen!

My family is looking forward to a vacation in Disney World later this month. We have a countdown on the wall, and we’re already scoping out the weather forecast in Florida for the time of our visit. It’s in the 90’s down south, so we’ll be looking for refreshing treats while we’re there.

One of the most popular desserts at Disney World is the famous Dole Whip. This delicious pineapple soft-serve ice cream is a “can’t miss” item for many families visiting Disney. But luckily, Dole Whips aren’t just at Disney World.

You can make a homemade Dole Whip right in your blender. Such a delicious recipe to remind you of Disney World!

You can make this homemade Dole Whip recipe any time. It only takes a few minutes to whip together.

I make my version with coconut milk because coconut and pineapple are such a great combo. Just four simple ingredients come together in a blender to make this no-churn homemade pineapple ice cream. Serve it in these pretty ice cream dishes for a fun treat!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups coconut milk (full fat)
  • 1 tbs lime juice
  • 4 cups finely chopped pineapple frozen
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

Instructions

  • Place the ingredients in a blender in the order listed. Typically liquid ingredients should go into the blender first, but I add the maple syrup last so it doesn’t get stuck to the bottom of the blender. Make sure the pineapple pieces are broken up and not all frozen together.
  • Blend the ingredients on medium-high until smooth and well-combined. If your blender has a hard time handling the frozen pineapple, add just a little more coconut milk so the blade can work properly.
  • This can be served right away if you want a soft, slushy consistency. Otherwise, freeze the ice cream in a shallow, airtight container for a couple hours until it reaches the desired consistency.

Notes

If you have the smaller Blendtec Twister Jar, you can cut this recipe in half and make a smaller quantity.

  4. LOVE the ingredients and how you used coconut milk, I guess it’s creamier that way. A great recipe for homemade ice-cream, loving the taste. 🙂

  5. Yay for coconut and pineapple together — such a great combo!
    Thank you for coming up with this recipe, so we don’t have to only get it in Disney World! As much as I’d want to be there, it is nice not to wait in the long lines for this tasty treat!!

    • It’s best in the first day or two. It will get harder as time passes, but it’s still fine to eat for a few months. Just defrost a bit and re-blend if needed.

  7. I just bought sweetened coconut milk before reading the comments. Should I leave out the maple syrup, or does it not matter? Looking forward to trying out the recipe now that I have all of the ingredients.

    • I would leave out the maple syrup. You can add it in after you blend the ingredients if you think it needs it (take a taste), but it should’t need it. Enjoy!

  11. I just made this tonight for dessert after eyeing it for months…wow! The 2-and 4- year olds loved it. You should have seen their eyes light up after one sip. My husband said it is the best frozen drink he’s had? We drank ours with straws instead of eating with spoons. Neither of us have been to Disney World or heard of a Dole whip, but it sure looked amazing, and I had everything on hand. Thanks for all your recipes!

    • I’m so glad everyone liked the Dole Whip, Kate! Sometimes it’s easier to make it more slushy. My blender does get a bit cranky when I’m going for a thick consistency. 🙂

  16. Annemarie,
    I’ve never had a Dole Whip at Disney, but whenever we’d go to the Dole Plantation when we lived on Oahu we’d get one so I know the taste. We’ve been grilling pineapple a bunch since getting our new grill, but I’ll have to save some out to try this since I could go for a Dole Whip along with my Kalua Pig for a full on Hawaiian fest.

    Thanks!
