Creamy Strawberry Pineapple Frozen Dessert

That sounds like a delightful and refreshing treat! Here’s a simple recipe for a Creamy Strawberry Pineapple Frozen Dessert:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled
• 1 cup fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
• 1 cup coconut milk (or another non-dairy milk of your choice)
• 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Fruit: If using fresh strawberries, wash and hull them. If using frozen strawberries and pineapple, there’s no need to thaw them.
2. Blend the Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine the strawberries, pineapple, coconut milk, honey or maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
3. Freeze the Mixture: Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. For a smooth texture, you can stir it every 30 minutes for the first 2-3 hours as it freezes.
4. Serve: Once the mixture is firm but not rock-hard, scoop it into bowls or glasses.
5. Optional Toppings: Garnish with fresh fruit, a sprig of mint, or a drizzle of extra honey or coconut milk if desired.

Tips:

• If you prefer a softer texture, let the frozen dessert sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
• For a creamier texture, you can use full-fat coconut milk or add a small amount of coconut cream.
• You can also add a handful of ice if you prefer a thicker consistency.
