No ice cream maker? No problem! You can make this homemade Dole Whip recipe right in your blender for an easy, refreshing dessert.
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 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!

Dole Whip Recipe
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.

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. 🙂

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!!

How long will this keep in the freezer?
Annemarie says
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.
Annie Kacheroski says
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.
Annemarie says
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!
Rose says
Do you buy frozen pineapple, or do you freeze fresh or canned pineapple in your recipe?
Looks yummy! 🙂
Annemarie says
I freeze fresh pineapple for this recipe, but the other options you mention would work as well.
