Frozen Strawberry Dole Whip (Printable)
A creamy frozen strawberry treat inspired by the classic Dole Whip. Made with simple ingredients, ready in 10 minutes, and completely dairy-free.
# What You Need:
→ Fruit & Juice
01 - 3 cups frozen strawberries
02 - 1/2 cup pineapple juice, chilled
03 - 1 medium ripe banana, sliced and frozen
→ Creamy Base
04 - 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk from carton
→ Sweetener
05 - 2-3 tablespoons maple syrup or agave syrup, to taste
→ Optional
06 - 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
# How-To Steps:
01 - Combine frozen strawberries, frozen banana, pineapple juice, coconut milk, maple syrup, and lemon juice (if using) in a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend on high, scraping down sides as needed, until completely smooth and creamy.
02 - Taste the mixture and add more syrup if desired to reach preferred sweetness level.
03 - Serve immediately for soft-serve texture, or transfer to freezer-safe container and freeze for 30-60 minutes for firmer consistency. Scoop into bowls or cones to serve.
# Helpful Tips:
01 -
- It comes together in literally ten minutes with ingredients you probably already have stocked
- The texture is shockingly close to the real thing, creamy and smooth without any dairy whatsoever
02 -
- A regular blender might struggle with the frozen fruit. If it keeps getting stuck, let everything sit for two minutes to soften slightly before trying again.
- Once frozen solid, it becomes pretty hard. Let it sit on the counter for five minutes before serving if you've frozen it longer than an hour.
03 -
- Double the batch and freeze extra in ice cube trays for quick single servings later
- If your blender isn't high-powered, break up the frozen fruit into smaller pieces before blending
