Equipment

  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Ice cream machine (optional but helps with the swirl)
  • 1 1M metal star piping tip
  • 1 Piping Bag

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces Fresh Dole Pineapple Chopped and frozen (2 cups)
  • 1 medium Dole banana Peeled, chopped and frozen (1 cup)
  • 4 ounces Unsweetened coconut milk (½ cup)
  • 1 teaspoon Lime juice ½ lime
  • 2 Tablespoons Powdered sugar Optional, if your pineapple isn't very sweet

Instructions

Making The Hawaiian Dole Whip

  • Using a sharp chef's knife, chip the top and the bottom of the pineapple off.
  • Trim the outside skin off the pineapple carefully.
  • Use a potato peeler to remove any of the hard eyes.
  • Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise and then in half again.
  • Use your knife to cut out the core of the pineapple.
  • Dice the pineapple into chunks and freeze them (at least 6 hours or overnight).
  • Dice your banana and freeze those pieces as well.
  • Place your frozen pineapple, banana, coconut milk and lime into a blender.
  • Blend until smooth
  • This will make a smoothie consistency Dole whip, if you want it pipe-able then you can add this mixture to an ice cream machine as I did with my Bosch ice cream bowl attachment.
  • Or you place the mixture onto a sheet pan and freeze it for 15 minutes, mix with a whisk and freeze again. Keep doing this until it's thick enough to pipe.

How To Make The Dole Whip Swirl

  • Take your dole whip and place it in a piping bag with a 1M metal star tip. ( you can use any piping tip you'd like but the traditional swirl is created by this star tip)
  • Start at the bottom of your desired bowl and pipe in a swirl motion until you reached your desired height.

Notes

Important Things To Note Before You Start
  1. The best investment you can make when you’re getting started with baking is a digital kitchen scale! Weighing your ingredients will help you avoid cake failure. Using a kitchen scale for baking is super easy and gives you the best results every single time. 
  2. Practice Mise en Place (everything in its place). Measure out your ingredients ahead of time and have them ready before you start mixing to reduce the chances of accidentally leaving something out.
  3. You can add more pineapple if your banana flavor is too strong, or take it out if you want more. Play with it and see what you like.
  4. Make sure your pineapples and bananas are super frozen to ensure a super thick texture. 
  5. This is the original recipe from Dole Whip so it's different than Disneyland Dole Whip.
