PINEAPPLE WHIP

Yield :

• Makes 5 servings.

Ingredients :

• 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and chopped
• 1 cup almond milk, or non-dairy milk of choice
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for authentic sweetness)

Preparation :

• To get started, you’ll want to freeze the pineapple chunks. I chopped mine a day ahead of time, and froze the chunks overnight. You could also purchase frozen pineapple, if you prefer.
• As you can see from the picture below, the frozen pineapple reached the 6.5 – 7 cup mark on my blender pitcher.
• This recipe works best in a high-speed blender, like the Vitamix, because you’ll need to be able to pulverize the frozen pineapple into an ice-cream-like consistency.
• A normal blender will most likely not work, but a food processor might.
• Combine the frozen pineapple with the almond milk and honey, then blend until a frozen sorbet texture is achieved.
• For an authentic Dole Whip presentation, transfer the frozen dessert to a large plastic bag, and cut off the tip to create a piping bag. Pipe the pineapple whip into 4-6 dishes, and serve immediately!
  Any leftovers can be frozen in an ice cube tray, and used in smoothies later.Enjoy!
