Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups Greek yogurt Use plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt for best results.
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple, chopped Use ripe pineapples for the sweetest flavor.
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup Adjust for sweetness according to your taste.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract Optional for added flavor.
  • 1 pinch salt Enhances the overall flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a blender or food processor, add the Greek yogurt, chopped pineapple, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed.
Churning
  1. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20–25 minutes.
  2. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for about 4 hours, stirring every hour until it’s well mixed.
Serving
  1. Once it reaches your desired consistency, scoop out and serve in bowls or cones.
  2. Optional: Add extra pineapple pieces, a sprinkle of shredded coconut, or a drizzle of honey on top for added flavor and texture.

Notes

Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer. It should last about 1–2 weeks. Let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping to soften it up if it becomes too hard.
