Refreshing, light, creamy coconut and pineapple ice cream. This easy no churn soft serve-like recipe has only three, natural ingredients! It’s naturally vegan, refined sugar free and delicious.

This vegan pineapple ice cream recipe is tropical, creamy, and the perfect balance of sweetness for dessert. Creamy coconut with refreshing pineapple makes for the most delicious no-churn soft serve! No egg, no ice cream machine, no added sugar!

This clean eating dessert recipe uses fresh ingredients. I’m a huge proponent of making simple recipes that don’t skimp out on taste. For desserts especially, I prefer fresh fruit, little to no sugar (almost always refined sugar free), and letting the ingredients stand for themselves. For other clean desserts like this one, try Frozen Greek Yogurt Cookie Bark or Creamy Mango Pineapple Popsicle.

I probably have ice cream a few times a year, and I much prefer lighter flavors like vanilla or lavender, or fruity flavors like pineapple, coconut, mango, or strawberry.

Want to know something funny? I actually worked at the corporate office of an ice cream shop in Los Angeles. After months of hearing about ice cream flavor research & development I knew I had to try the Elise Tries to Cook version!

When deciding what ice cream to attempt first, I knew it would have to be a pineapple ice cream. My favorite fruit in the entire world is pineapple. Pair with some coconut and it’s the tropical ice cream to make dreams come true!

Ingredients & Substitutions

This vegan, three-ingredient ice cream is SO easy!

• Coconut Milk. Full-fat and from a can is necessary. Substitute for a can of coconut cream.
• Coconut Cream. Substitute for a can of full-fat coconut milk.
• Frozen Pineapple. You can use fresh pineapple or canned pineapple and freeze it, in this vegan ice cream recipe.

Why use full-fat coconut milk?

The coconut milk needs to be full-fat and from a can, otherwise the mixture will not turn out creamy. Typically, an ice cream machine churns the ice cream to avoid the formation of ice crystals. You’ll need a higher fat content to reduce the formation of ice crystals in a no-churn ice cream.

Step-By-Step Instructions

STEP ONE: Blend all ingredients.

STEP TWO: After 30-seconds of blending, remove lid, push all liquid to the bottom and re-blend.

STEP THREE: Continue until reaching a thick, soft-serve like texture.

STEP FOUR: Serve immediately for soft-serve texture, or gently pour into a loaf pan and cover tightly with plastic wrap and aluminum foil.

STEP FIVE: Freeze for up to three hours for a scooping texture!

While this no churn vegan ice cream definitely doesn’t need any toppings, here are some fun adds:
