COOKBOOK / 29024
Start by popping the unopened can of pineapple in the fridge so it gets nice and cold. Then, grab a silicone muffin pan and set it on a metal tray. Spoon the coconut cream evenly into the muffin cups and pop the whole thing in the freezer for about 3 hours, or until it's completely frozen.
Once the coconut cream is solid, carefully remove the frozen pieces from the muffin pan and toss them into a blender. Add the chilled pineapple along with its juice, some frozen banana slices, a splash of vanilla extract, and a bit of honey. Blend everything until it’s smooth and creamy.
Spoon the coconut mixture back into the silicone muffin cups, then freeze again for another 3 hours to let it firm up. When you’re ready to serve, take the ice cream out a few minutes early so it softens just enough to come out easily. If you’re serving it in a bowl, sprinkle some shredded coconut on top for a nice touch.
- Use full-fat coconut milk for the creamiest texture.
- Freeze the mixture in a shallow container to speed up freezing time.
- Stir the ice cream every 30 minutes while freezing to prevent ice crystals and keep it smooth.
This dessert is creamy and refreshing without any dairy, making it perfect for those with allergies or lactose intolerance. The tropical flavors of coconut and pineapple bring a bright, sweet taste that feels like a mini vacation in every bite. Plus, it’s quick to make with minimal ingredients.
Serve this icy treat topped with toasted coconut flakes or fresh pineapple chunks for added texture. It also pairs well with a sprinkle of chopped nuts or a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness. Enjoy it as a light dessert on a warm day.
Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer to keep it fresh. If it becomes too hard, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. Consume within one week for the best flavor and texture.
