What Is “Nice Cream”?

“Nice cream” is a playful term used for a healthy alternative to traditional ice cream, usually made from frozen fruit and a creamy, plant-based liquid or yogurt. It’s dairy-free (if you want it to be), low in calories, and packed with natural sweetness and fiber.

Think of it as soft serve with benefits—you get the texture and satisfaction of ice cream, without the added sugars, artificial ingredients, or guilt.

Ingredients

To make 2 servings of Pineapple Nice Cream, you’ll need:

2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
½ cup non-fat Greek yogurt (swap with coconut yogurt for dairy-free option)
Optional: 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness (totally optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Add the Fruit

Place the frozen pineapple chunks into a high-speed blender or food processor. Make sure they’re frozen solid—this gives the nice cream its thick, creamy texture.

Step 2: Add the Liquid and Yogurt

Pour in the unsweetened almond milk and non-fat Greek yogurt.
If using honey for added sweetness, drizzle it in now.

Step 3: Blend It Up

Blend everything on high speed until the texture becomes smooth and creamy, like soft-serve ice cream. You may need to pause and scrape down the sides a few times. Be patient—it’s worth it!

Step 4: Adjust Consistency

If the mixture is too thick to blend, add a splash more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time. The goal is a rich, scoopable, creamy texture.

Step 5: Serve or Freeze

For soft serve: Scoop immediately into bowls and serve with your favorite toppings.
For firmer texture: Transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 1–2 hours, then scoop like regular ice cream.

Topping Ideas (Optional but Delicious!)

Toasted coconut flakes
Chia seeds or hemp seeds
Fresh berries
Dark chocolate chips
Crushed nuts or granola
Mint leaves for garnish

These toppings not only enhance the flavor and texture but also boost visual appeal—perfect for Instagram-worthy shots or Pinterest posts.
