WW Dole Whip Recipe

A WW Dole Whip is a healthier, Weight Watchers-friendly take on the classic tropical dessert that’s a favorite at Disney theme parks. Traditionally made with pineapple, sugar, and cream, Dole Whip is sweet, creamy, and refreshing. This WW version swaps out high-calorie ingredients for lighter alternatives without compromising the delicious tropical flavor. It’s the perfect guilt-free treat to cool down with on a hot day or to satisfy your sweet tooth without using up your daily WW points!

The key to this WW Dole Whip recipe is using frozen pineapple, which provides the natural sweetness and tropical flavor, while Greek yogurt or light coconut milk is used to give it that creamy texture without the added fat. A bit of sweetener like stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol keeps the dessert sweet without the sugar, keeping the points low. A splash of lemon juice enhances the pineapple’s brightness, and vanilla extract adds a lovely depth of flavor. You can also adjust the consistency by blending in a bit of water or ice for a thicker or thinner version.

Best of all, this version of Dole Whip is simple to make, requiring only a blender or food processor, and you can make it in just a few minutes. Whether you enjoy it as a soft-serve-style treat or freeze it into a popsicle, this WW Dole Whip is a refreshing, lighter alternative to the traditional version and perfect for anyone following the Weight Watchers program.


WW Dole Whip Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1/2 cup non-fat Greek yogurt (or light coconut yogurt for a dairy-free version)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (or lemon juice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener or stevia (adjust based on your sweetness preference)
  • 1/4 cup water (or coconut water for extra flavor)
  • Optional: pinch of salt (to enhance flavor)

Instructions:

  1. Blend the ingredients:
    • Add the frozen pineapple, Greek yogurt, lime juice, vanilla extract, and sweetener to a high-speed blender or food processor. If needed, add the water or coconut water a little at a time to help the blender process the mixture. The goal is to get a creamy, soft-serve consistency.
  2. Adjust the consistency:
    • If the mixture is too thick, add more water or coconut water, a tablespoon at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency. If you want it firmer, you can skip the extra liquid and let the mixture freeze a bit before serving.
  3. Serve immediately or freeze:
    • For a soft-serve treat, serve the WW Dole Whip immediately, scooping it into bowls or cups. You can even use an ice cream scooper for fun, authentic Dole Whip-style swirls.
    • If you prefer a firmer texture, spoon the mixture into a container and freeze for 1-2 hours to firm up.
  4. Optional toppings:
    • If you’re feeling extra, you can sprinkle some shredded coconut, crushed pineapple, or a few extra frozen berries on top of your Dole Whip for added flavor and texture. Just be mindful of the extra points.

Tips:

  • Make it dairy-free: For a dairy-free version, swap the Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt or another plant-based yogurt. Coconut milk is another great alternative to Greek yogurt, though it may add slightly more fat.
  • Sweetener options: You can use monk fruit, stevia, or erythritol to sweeten the Dole Whip without adding calories or sugar. Adjust the sweetness to your liking.
  • Tropical variations: Feel free to experiment with different tropical fruits like mango or banana for a twist on the classic pineapple flavor.
  • Freeze ahead: You can prepare a batch ahead of time and store it in the freezer for up to a week. Just let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to soften slightly.
