How to Make Coconut Pineapple Ice Cream

Combine 2 cans (13.5 oz each) full-fat coconut milk, 1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple (in juice), and 1 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl. Whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This will typically take 20-30 minutes.
Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until solid. This allows the ice cream to firm up further.
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop and enjoy your taste of paradise!
