I have a confession to make: I’ve never been a big fan of ice cream. There, I said it!

But, that’s mainly because I’ve been severely lactose intolerant my whole life, and ice cream used to make me super sick. So, I’ve always associated it with a really bad stomachache.

However, both times I’ve been pregnant, I just couldn’t get enough ice cream! Something about the creamy, smooth texture just seemed to hit all the right spots. And that craving has lasted well past pregnancy.

These days, I can’t get enough fruit-flavored ice cream like mango, strawberry, and lychee. And neither can my kids!

Now, being lactose intolerant, I usually like to make dairy-free desserts like my copycat Pineapple Dole Whip recipe.

However, some creamy desserts are totally worth a Lactaid pill. And this Hawaii pineapple ice cream tops my list.

This homemade pineapple soft serve ice cream tastes just like what you’d get at a Hawaiian ice cream shop.

You can make this canned pineapple ice cream recipe to eat on its own or add a scoop to your favorite pie. You can even top it with a crumbled cookie to add a bit of texture. Or turn it into a pineapple milkshake!

The possibilities for this Hawaii ice cream are endless!

For this pineapple ice cream recipe, no eggs are needed! So, here is this homemade, easy ice cream recipe!

How to Make Homemade Pineapple Ice Cream with Condensed Milk

Add the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla and whip to combine fully. Stir in the crushed pineapple. Pour into a freezer-safe dish, cover, and freeze for 6 to 8 hours or until frozen solid.
Scoop into bowls and top with freshly cut or canned pineapple chunks. Enjoy!

Notes

This is an easy homemade churned ice cream recipe for fresh pineapple ice cream. You don’t need a Cuisinart ice cream maker!
You can use both fresh pineapple or canned pineapple. For a greater pineapple flavor, you can use the extract as well.
For more toppings, add some coconut flakes or macadamia nuts, for more tropical flavors.
For storage instructions, keep it in a freezer-safe container. An airtight container works better than plastic wrap to keep this frozen fruit with a creamy texture.
