1

Add half-thawed pineapple, milk, vanilla, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt to a blender and blend until very smooth. At this point, the whip will have a very soft consistency. You can serve it like this if you want.

2

If you prefer a thicker whip, add the mixture to a chilled ice cream churner and churn for 10-15 minutes. Scoop out and serve immediately!

3

Leftovers can be frozen, but they will turn very hard. Thaw leftovers in the microwave on low heat for a minute or two, so it becomes a soft, smooth texture again.

Ingredients in Disneyland’s Dole Whips

We know that there are a lot of different copycat recipes out there, but these are the ingredients that we use in our Pineapple Dole Whips:

frozen pineapple chunks

vanilla ice cream

fresh lime and lemon juice

pineapple juice

We do know that the Dole Whips at Disneyland and Disney World are dairy free, gluten free, and vegan.

For our recipe, we are using vanilla ice cream, which is not dairy free (but feel free to substitute a dairy-free ice cream of your choice).

You could also add more frozen pineapple and some coconut milk if desired. I prefer the ice cream because it makes it so creamy and delicious.

Dole Whip Recipe Ingredients

One of the main reasons that Dole whip is SO good is the fresh pineapple picked at its prime. Because I wanted this recipe to be 100% faithful to the original, I went ahead and ordered two Royal Hawaiian pineapples to be shipped from the Dole plantation straight to my house. Of course, you do not have to do this, any ripe pineapple will do!
