If you enjoy Disney dole whip, you’ll love this healthy homemade pineapple dole whip recipe! With only 3 ingredients, it takes less than 5 minutes to whip up this tasty dairy-free frozen treat. Your whole family will love it!

Homemade Dole Whip

If you’ve ever been to Disneyland, you may have had the opportunity to try pineapple dole whip. This tasty, frozen treat was one I daydreamed about for years, until one day I decided to recreate the treat right at home.

I made this delicious pineapple ice cream and it was absolutely fantastic! This frozen treat is so tasty—we’ve made it over and over again. My whole family loves it.

Guilt-Free Treat

Plus I love that it’s practically guilt-free because it’s made up of simply fruit and a little coconut milk. There’s no corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, or preservatives in this simple recipe. One of my kids gets hyperactive if he eats anything with high fructose corn syrup, so I look for simple clean eating recipes that are easy to make for my kids.

A few notes about this Dole whip recipe before we get to the instructions…

Is Dole Whip Dairy-Free?

Yes, this homemade version of Disney dole whip is dairy-free. It contains coconut milk and fruit – that’s it! However, even those who love dairy will completely enjoy this dessert.

This recipe is also great for those who avoid dairy or can’t consume it. One of my sons is very sensitive to dairy (it triggers his asthma) and he loves this pineapple dole whip!

Is Dole Whip Vegan?

Yes, this pineapple whip recipe is vegan. There are only plant-based ingredients. This truly is a treat for everyone!

How to Make Pineapple Whip

Making this pineapple dole whip recipe is so easy! All it takes are a few ingredients and a couple minutes of time.

Ingredients:

  • banana – ripe
  • frozen pineapple chunks – you can cut up a fresh pineapple and freeze the chunks too, but for the quickest, easiest option, just buy a bag of frozen pineapple chunks
  • coconut milk – I think coconut milk tastes best, but if you don’t have it or if you are intolerant, you can also use almond or cashew milk
  • Optional ingredients – grass-fed collagen peptides (for a creamier taste and added benefits), rum extract (for a more adult flavor)
Dole whip ingredients including chunks of pineapple, slices of banana and a cup of coconut milk on a cutting board.

You won’t need an ice cream maker for this homemade dole whip, but you will need a food processor.

Step by Step Directions for Pineapple Whip

Put the banana, pineapple chunks, and coconut milk into your food processor.

Blend for 20-40 seconds or so (depending on how powerful your processor is). Heads up – it will probably make a lot of noise! Frozen pineapple takes power to chop up! Make sure you have the stopper on the top to prevent anything from flying out.

If you’re adding collagen peptides, add a scoop to your pineapple coconut ice cream now. If you want to add a little extra taste for adults, add 1/2 tsp rum extract or actual rum if you prefer.

Stop and scrape down the sides and blend again for a few more seconds until it’s nice and creamy.

Make-Ahead Homemade Dole Whip

You can also turn this into a make-ahead recipe. If you plan to serve later or would like your Dole whip recipe a little firmer, scoop into a container and freeze for 1-2 hours. A bread pan is the perfect size for this!

If you leave your pineapple whip in the freezer overnight, you’ll need to thaw it for 20 minutes or so before you can scoop it.

        It’s definitely more pineapple, Kris. The banana just adds a little more sweetness and rounded flavor.

      Can you use regular milk instead of the special kind?

        Sure, Kaila. It won’t be quite as “healthy” but why not?

      Sounds great but I cannot find frozen pineapple. Can I use canned pineapple?

        You do want frozen pineapple for this recipe otherwise it won’t “whip” well. In your case, you can try draining the canned pineapple, then freezing the chunks by placing on parchment paper in the freezer.

        You can try it, but it likely won’t be as smooth. It also depends on your blender. For example, a high powered vitamix blender would probably work well but a cheap blender may not. Good luck!
