⭐ How to Make 3-Ingredient Pineapple Ice Cream
1. Add Ingredients to Blender
Place frozen pineapple chunks, almond milk, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and optional sweetener into a high-speed blender or food processor.
2. Blend Until Creamy
Blend on high, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
At first it will look crumbly — keep blending.
Within 1–2 minutes, it transforms into a thick, smooth, ice-cream-like texture.
3. Serve or Freeze
- For soft-serve style, scoop and enjoy immediately.
- For firmer ice cream, transfer to a container and freeze for 20–30 minutes.
Stir once before serving if frozen.
🍍 Flavor Variations (Still Simple)
- Pineapple Vanilla: add extra vanilla extract
- Pineapple Coconut: swap almond milk for light coconut milk
- Pineapple Protein: add ½ scoop vanilla protein powder
- Pineapple Berry: blend in a handful of frozen strawberries
💡 Tips for Best Results
- Use fully frozen pineapple for the creamiest texture
- A high-speed blender works best
- Add liquid gradually if needed — too much will thin it out
- Greek yogurt adds protein and creaminess without heaviness
🧊 Storage Instructions
Freezer:
Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Let sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping.
