🛒 Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks 🍍
  • ½ cup coconut milk 🥥

👩‍🍳 Detailed Step-by-Step Instructions

❄️ Step 1: Freeze the Pineapple

  • If using fresh pineapple:
    • Peel and cut into chunks.
    • Spread pieces on a tray so they don’t stick together.

👉 Fully frozen pineapple creates the thick soft-serve texture.

🌪️ Step 2: Add to Blender

  • Pour in the coconut milk.

👉 Start with less liquid first. You can always add more later.

🥄 Step 3: Blend Slowly

  • Blend on low speed first.
  • The mixture will look crumbly at the beginning — this is normal.
  • Stop occasionally and scrape down the sides with a spoon or spatula.

👉 This helps everything blend evenly.

🍦 Step 4: Make It Creamy

  • Continue blending until the texture becomes:
    • Smooth
    • Thick
    • Creamy like soft-serve ice cream 😍
  • If too thick:
    • Add 1 tablespoon coconut milk at a time.

⚠️ Don’t add too much liquid or it will become runny.

🌀 Step 5: Serve

  • Scoop into bowls or glasses.
  • For a fancy swirl look:
    • Put mixture into a piping bag.
    • Pipe in circles like ice cream shop soft serve. ✨
  • Serve immediately before melting. 😋

💡 Tips

✅ Freeze pineapple in small chunks for easier blending.
✅ A tiny pinch of salt makes the pineapple taste sweeter.
✅ Add a little vanilla for extra flavor.

❓Q&A

❓Can I use another milk?

✅ Yes! Almond milk or oat milk also works.

❓Can I freeze leftovers?

✅ Yes, but let it soften for 10 minutes before eating again.

❓Do I need added sugar?

✅ Usually no — pineapple is naturally sweet enough.
