Pineapple and Raspberry Frozen Fruit Whip

Why do my kids always want to cook something at the worst possible times?

It’s hot, the cupboards are bare, the kitchen is already a mess, and the last thing I want to do is turn on the oven so the kids can make cookies. But there are so many good reasons to cook with the kids, not to mention the delicious results. And now I have the bestest, easiest, most delicious answer to this conundrum – frozen fruit whip!

Raspberry and pineapple frozen fruit whip

This frozen fruit whip is made from just fruit, and a slosh of juice or water. That’s it. No fancy ingredients, no added sugar, no baking, just fruit.

You’ll need an strong blender or food processor that is able to crush ice, and you of course you’ll need to supervise your kids so they can use this safely.

All you need to do is pop the fruit into the blender, add a slosh of water or fruit juice to help it combine (and I literally mean a slosh… 1-2 tablespoons, some fruits are juicy enough not to even need that) and hit that button to whizz it all together until it looks like ice cream!

Spoon it into bowls and you are ready to eat!

This recipe makes about half a litre of frozen fruit whip, enough for four small-ish serves. You might want to double the recipe!

If by some miracle you have some left over, you can pop it in a sealed container in the freezer. It will go fairly hard once frozen, but it still tastes great, and you can pop it back in the blender with some extra juice or sparkling water, or milk and make a delicious fruit drink or smoothie.
