Ingredients:
2 cups fresh pineapple, chopped (or canned pineapple, drained)
1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)
1/2 cup coconut cream (for extra richness)
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
Prepare the pineapple:
If using fresh pineapple, chop it into small pieces. For a smoother texture, blend the pineapple in a blender or food processor until you get a thick puree.
Make the ice cream mixture:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pineapple puree, coconut milk, coconut cream, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, and sugar. Stir well until everything is fully combined.
Chill the mixture:
Place the ice cream mixture in the fridge for about 1 hour to chill. This helps the flavors blend and ensures the ice cream freezes faster.
Churn the ice cream:
Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually about 20-25 minutes).
Freeze the ice cream:
Once the ice cream reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer it to a container with a lid and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours or overnight to firm up.
Serve & enjoy:
Scoop the creamy, tropical ice cream into bowls or cones, and enjoy a cool, tropical treat!
