Ingredients

Ice Cream Base

1 Cup Pineapple Canned, in pineapple juice, drained
1 Banana Medium, ripe (If you don't want to be able to taste the banana, see the notes section in the recipe card below)
2½ Teaspoons Powdered Sugar
½ Cup Unsweetened Coconut Milk Canned
1 Teaspoon Lime Juice

Mix-Ins

3 Tablespoons Pineapple Juice Reserved from the canned pineapple

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Make the Ice Cream Mixture

Pour the pineapple, banana, powdered sugar, coconut milk, and lime juice into a small blender and blend until all ingredients are fully combined. Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container.
Freeze on a level surface for 24 hours. Your freezer should be between 9 and -7 degrees Fahrenheit. To avoid getting a bump on the top of the frozen mixture, freeze with the lid off of the container.

Process the Ice Cream

After 24 hours, remove the pint container from the freezer.
Place the pint container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami and then process on “ICE CREAM."
Since Dole Whip is more of a soft serve consistency, you will need to add pineapple juice and re-spin. Pour a tablespoon of the reserved pineapple juice into the pint and re-spin. Repeat this process until it has reached the desired consistency- like soft-serve ice cream.
Your ice cream is ready to eat! Enjoy!

Notes

Does this recipe taste like bananas?

You can taste the banana in the recipe. The banana helps create a great texture and provides good flavor too. You can reduce or eliminate the banana completely by using extra pineapples and about ⅛ teaspoon of guar gum, instead.

Can you use frozen pineapples and bananas to make Dole Whip?

Yes, you can use frozen fruit to make Ninja Creami Dole Whip. However, you should thaw the frozen fruit so that it is soft enough to blend together with the other ingredients in the recipe.

Can you make Dole Whip in the Ninja Creami without freezing first?

Some people put frozen fruit along with the dairy and other ingredients into the Ninja Creami container and then process, without freezing the mixture first. I DO NOT recommend doing this. If you want to do that, then just use a blender. The Ninja Creami is not made to process hard frozen chunks (frozen fruit) that are suspended in liquid (dairy and other ingredient). Processing frozen fruit with liquid (without freezing the mixture first) can damage the machine and may void the warranty.
