Homemade Orange Dole Whip (Printable)
A refreshing, creamy frozen treat bursting with bright orange flavor — the perfect homemade version of the iconic theme park dessert.
# What You Need:
→ Fruit
01 - 2 cups frozen orange segments, peeled and seeded
02 - 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
→ Dairy & Alternatives
03 - 1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy-free option)
04 - 1/3 cup whole milk (or coconut milk for dairy-free option)
→ Sweetener
05 - 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup, adjust to taste
→ Flavoring
06 - 1 teaspoon orange zest
07 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
08 - Pinch of salt
# How To Make It:
01 - Place the frozen orange segments and frozen pineapple chunks in a high-powered blender or food processor.
02 - Add the Greek yogurt, milk, honey, orange zest, vanilla extract, and salt to the blender.
03 - Blend on high speed, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides with a spatula, until the mixture becomes completely creamy and smooth.
04 - Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness with additional honey or agave if desired.
05 - For immediate soft-serve texture, serve in bowls or pipe using a piping bag. For a firmer, scoopable consistency, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 2–3 hours before serving.
# Expert Suggestions:
01 -
- Takes literally ten minutes from freezer to bowl, perfect for sudden summer cravings
- Creamier than anything store bought, and you control exactly what goes into it
02 -
- Do not skip the freeze time on your fresh fruit, or the texture will be icy rather than creamy
- Letting the fruit sit at room temperature for two minutes before blending makes a huge difference in how smoothly everything processes
03 -
- If your blender struggles, add just one more tablespoon of milk to help things along without sacrificing texture
- Double the batch and keep extras in the freezer for those nights when dessert needs to happen immediately
