Pineapple Soft Serve Ice Cream

Preparation Time:

• Prep Time: 15 minutes
• Freezing Time: 2 hours
• Total Time: 2 hours 15 minutes

Difficulty Level:

• Easy

Ingredients:

• 4 cups frozen pineapple chunks
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (or any milk of choice)
• 2 tbsp honey or agave syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pineapple:
   • If not using pre-frozen pineapple chunks, cut a fresh pineapple into chunks and freeze them for at least 2 hours or until completely frozen.
2. Blend the Ingredients:
   • In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, honey or agave syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.
   • Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. This may take a few minutes depending on your blender’s power.
3. Adjust Consistency:
   • If the mixture is too thick, add a little more coconut milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
4. Serve Immediately:
   • Scoop the pineapple soft serve into bowls or cones.
   • Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
5. Optional Freezing:
   • For a firmer texture, transfer the soft serve to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 30 minutes to 1 hour before serving.
