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!

Calories: 350kcal
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.

Do you use sweetened or unsweetened coconut milk?

Unsweetened coconut milk is what I use. I actually make my own. It’s so easy! Here’s the recipe: https://realfoodrealdeals.com/how-to-make-coconut-milk/

Thank you for the recipe and the information! My family LOVES pineapple whip!
Kate says
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!
Annemarie says
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. 🙂
Thalia @ butter and brioche says
Yum! I’ve never tried dole whip before but it looks like something I would love to devour.
Renée ♥ says
Dole Whip is just the best, especially on a hot summer day! Thanks so much for this! (Don’t you just love your Blendtec?)
Annemarie says
I can’t stop using my Blendtec! It’s been a game-changer in our kitchen.
Strength and Sunshine says
Yum! I’ve never actually had one!

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!
Annemarie says
That must have been great to visit the Dole Plantation, Kirsten. We love grilled pineapple too!
Deanna Segrave-Daly (@tspbasil) says
Ooh – cannot wait to make this!! (And this might be the finally push for me to buy a Blendtec at last 🙂
Annemarie says
Enjoy, Deanna! I can’t say enough good things about my Blendtec. It’s been a game-changer in our kitchen.
