    Make your own Creamy Homemade Dole Whip! An easy frozen treat that is gluten-free and vegan.

    Creamy Homemade Dole WhipDole Whip seems to have a magical association. The creamy, cool treat is first had by many at Disneyworld or Disneyland.

    Some experience it in tropical locales that certainly have their own magic. 
     
    I had the dairy-free pineapple soft-serve when we were in Hawaii last year and pretty much never stopped thinking about it.

    What’s in Dole Whip you ask? 

    Primarily, pineapple. In my creamy homemade Dole Whip version, I’ve combined frozen pineapple chunks with frozen banana and coconut cream. And here’s why:

    Frozen pineapple chunks - you want your pineapple frozen to help with the “soft-serve” effect. 
     
    Frozen banana - for my variation, I’ve added half of a banana. Bananas help add a creamy texture that we want. I suggest slicing your banana into pieces before freezing.
     
    Coconut cream - with frozen treats and smoothies, I like adding coconut cream for its fat content. This helps with the creamy factor as well as enhances that tropical flavor. 
     
    In addition to the three main ingredients, I’ve added a bit of pure vanilla extract and a pinch of salt to round things out.

    Do you need an ice cream maker for Dole Whip? 

    No. We’re keeping things simple here. A good food processor or high powered blender will do just fine. 

    I like using my food processor for this recipe due to the need for stopping and stirring, but that is completely personal preference. Use what you have on hand.

    And, if you are feeling those tropical vibes, my mango raspberry bellini popsicles make for a refreshing brunch or happy hour treat.
