Greek Yogurt Ninja Creami Ice Cream
A simple, high-protein ice cream made with a Greek yogurt base in the Ninja Creami. No protein powder needed, just a few ingredients for an easy, lower-calorie dessert.
Method
-
Combine all ingredients in the Ninja Creami container and mix until fully blended.
-
Let the mixture sit uncovered for 5–10 minutes.
-
Cover and freeze overnight or until completely solid.
-
Remove from the freezer and leave at room temperature for about 10 minutes, or briefly run warm water around the outside.
-
Place the container into the Ninja Creami and run the “Lite Ice Cream” cycle.
-
Add 1–2 ounces of milk or milk alternative and run the “Re-Spin” cycle.
-
If using mix-ins, add them and run the “Mix-In” function.
Notes
You may need more than one re-spin to get a smoother consistency.
The pudding mix or gums are optional and mainly help with texture.
Adjust sweetness based on your yogurt choice.
