Gemma's Bigger Bolder Baking Homemade Dole Whip
Hi Bold Bakers! The weather has been really beautiful here in Southern California so Kevin
and I took a little sneaky day off work and headed to Disneyland. We brought our camera with
us and went on some rides, we had some delicious treats and one of them is the inspiration
behind today's video. So let's check it out.

I just piloted the Mark Twain and I got this amazing certificate to say I did so. And he
said I did a great job.

I want to head into Adventureland because the Jungle Cruise is in here and it's one
of my favorite rides. Also, I'm feeling a little bit snacky so I'm going to get some
food. So this line is actually for Dole Whip. I've never had it before. It's like pureed
Pineapple. I'm really excited to try it. Lovely, Thanks a million!
Yumm. Now I know why that line was so big. This is delicious. We could totally make this.
So let's do it! Let's go back to my kitchen and recreate this delicious treat. Yumm.
For those of you who have never had Dole Whip before, it's like soft serve whipped Pineapple.
It is not only delicious, it just contains two ingredients, is dairy free and suitable
for vegans, and it is extremely fast to make. And you do not need to freeze it, you enjoy
it straight away. So lots of good reasons to eat it.
To make the Dole Whip, I'm going to use my trusty blender but you can also use a food
processor. So the first ingredient and the main one is frozen pineapple. Now your pineapple
has to be frozen when you're making this because it makes it thick and creamy and a frozen
treat. You can use store bought pineapple but just make sure on the bag that there's
no sugar added. Or if you have pineapple at home, you can chop it up nice and small, freeze
it and then use that. That's what I did today.
So our second ingredient is coconut milk, or any other dairy-free milk you like. You
can also use regular milk if you're not worried about it being dairy free. Also, with this
coconut milk you do not have to have full fat. Feel free to use light because that's what
I'm using today.
In your blender pitcher, add in your coconut milk and your frozen pineapple. It helps to
put the milk in first because it blends much better. Have your coconut milk nice and cold
before using it.
On with your lid and into the blender. You want to blend your Dole Whip until it's lovely
and smooth and there are no more lumps. You will actually see it get a little bit bigger
because there's nice air put into it.
So you'll notice after a few seconds that it won't blend any more. So you want to take
it off the machine, go in there with your spatula and mix it all around. You don't want
to put too much pressure on your machine so just go in when you need to.
Because there's such little liquid in here, it's kind of hard for the machine to blend
it so you're going to have to take it off and mix it up around 3-4 times.
So I asked on my Facebook page what dessert everyone thought I was making from Disneyland
and a lot of you guessed Dole Whip so well done.
It's looking good. You can see it's lovely and thick but there are still some lumps in
there. Gosh, it smells so tropical. And you can tell when it's almost done because it
kind of puffs up bit. It gets nice and whipped. Which is exactly what it is. It's whipped pineapple.
There are only a few tiny more lumps so I'm going to put it on one more time then I think
we're done. So it's a good idea to have your serving bowl ready before your Dole Whip is
finished because you want to get it nice and cold. I have frozen half of a pineapple and
I hollowed it out to put my Dole Whip in there. You can always use bowls, that's totally fine,
just make sure they're nice and cold or even frozen because it will make your Dole Whip last longer.
And it's done! That wasn't too long. And this is what it's supposed to look like. Beautiful,
whipped light pineapple. It's a lovely kind of yellowy color. It looks a little bit like
Pineapple Ice Cream. This is what it's supposed to be like: soft serve. That's why you eat
it immediately. If you have any left over, you can always put it in the freezer but this
is best eaten straight away.
So at this stage, it's ready to eat. So you can scoop it into your bowls or in true Disney
style I'm going to put it into my piping bag with a Star Nozzle and pipe it into my pineapple
to get those lovely ripples around the edges. When it is frozen, it might be hard to scoop.
Just let it thaw a little bit and it will still be delicious.
Build your Dole Whip up nice and high by swirling your piping bag around. This looks just like
the one you get at Disneyland. I love the pineapple and coconut but you can add raspberry,
lime zest, whatever you like in here.
You saw how incredibly easy and fast this is to make. Who would not want this on a hot
day? And best of all, you don't have to wait for it to freeze.
I really hope you enjoyed this addition to my frozen treats. Thank you so much for subscribing
to my channel. And I'll see you back here again next Thursday and every Thursday for
more Bigger Bolder Baking.
