Ninja Creami Strawberry Ice Cream
Ninja Creami strawberry cottage cheese ice cream comes out super creamy. It's the perfect way to add protein to ice cream without protein powder!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup diced strawberries (about 7 medium strawberries)
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add diced strawberries and sugar to Ninja Creami container. Let sit for 5 minutes, then mash strawberries with a fork.
- Add cottage cheese, milk, and vanilla extract to container. Stir to completely combine.
- Place lid on the Ninja Creami container and store in the freezer on a flat surface for at least 24 hours.
- Remove the pint from the freezer and run a little warm water along the outside of the container.
- Process on the LITE ICE CREAM setting. If crumbly, add a splash of milk (about a Tablespoon) and respin.
Notes
- Make sure to let the strawberries sit in the sugar for at least 5 minutes before mashing! This allows them to release juices that make them easier to mash.
- Always make sure to place ice cream on a level surface when freezing. If you store your ice cream in your freezer at an angle, your ice cream will not freeze at a level surface and you risk damaging your Creami when processing.
- If you have leftover ice cream, level out the top and stick back in the freezer. Either reprocess if needed before enjoying again or scoop out directly if ice cream is scoopable consistency.
