PSA for newbies!! (Or really anyone)

To preface: ice cream is my favorite food and I’m on a weight loss journey

I’ve been liking the creami a decent amount but I haven’t loved most of the recipes I tried. A big reason is that I hate the taste of artificial sugar and I feel like the recipes are too high calorie for how they taste and the satisfaction I get out of them. EVERYTHING changed for me when I stopped trying to pack the protein in and just focus on low calorie and good taste. The two biggest hacks I’m using right now are using monkfruit/allulose sugar (zero artificial sugar taste at all— I know I couldn’t believe it either so don’t take my word for it just try it) and using whole milk. Whole milk because it tastes good. The recipe I’ve been making lately has 1.5 cups whole milk, a few tbsps monkfruit/allulose, salt, xantham gum, cake batter flavoring, and 1.5 tbsp butterscotch pudding mix (probably optional it barely adds any taste you could def do without) This tastes SOO GOOD, and it’s like 150-200 calories for 2 cups. I love packing in the protein but it just wasn’t worth it for how much I had to sacrifice for the taste. This honest to god tastes like real ice cream. And it’s way lower calorie than the protein pints I was attempting before. So if you’re trying to lose weight but also want the best possible tasting ice cream, keep it simple and ditch the protein shakes/powders!!!

Creami recipe too runny for soft serve

I recently purchased a Creami Swirl and tried the chocolate soft serve recipe mentioned in the recipe book but the pint turned out too runny. I refroze the pint for another day and the results were the same.
Here is the recipe:
1/3 cup granulated sugar

1TBS chocolate instant pudding mix

3 TBS cocoa powder (I used the Tim Horton's Hot chocolate powder)

1 cup whole milk (I used 3.25%)

3/4 cup + t tsp heavy cream (36%)

2 tsp vanilla extract.

Did I miss something or use the wrong ingredients? I was looking forward to the soft serve and wouldn't mind a different recipe either. TIA.

Found the Best Low Calorie Vanilla Base Recipe

I’ve scoured the internet to try to find every vanilla base recipe, but they just weren’t working for me. All the fairlife fat free milk + sweetener + extract didn’t have that key vanilla flavor like real ice cream

So I decided to use a good vanilla protein milkshake as the base instead of just normal milk

- 1 Aldi Vanilla Protein Milkshake (or the Fairlife Vanilla one, they taste identical in the ice cream)

- 25g Monkfruit Sweetener

- 2g Vanilla Extract

- 1g salt

- 1g Xantham Gum

It tastes identical to real vanilla ice cream and the main thing is having the milk filtered vanilla protein milkshake as the base instead of protein powder bases or just Fairlife fat free milk + sweetener. That's why all the chocolate base recipes with the Fairlife chocolate shakes taste so good.

Give it a shot at let me know if you like it!

Base help after swapping to deluxe (dull taste/different texture)

I recently swapped to the deluxe and have found that my usual base even when upscale properly and more so in sweetener, still is pretty dull.

Also, I used to run one ice cream spin, one mix in and it gave me the perfect consistency. Now, it’s not bad but definitely more icy even when following the fully same protocol. ( run under warm water for time I’ve found to be good, scraping sides down ) and that spin settings I listed.

I have both bases listed above, in the original I used 20g monkfruit and with the deluxe I tried 30 and now 40g, still having somewhat dull taste.

Best low-sugar all-purpose topping/mix-in?

Newish user and I'm already tired of Fiber One brownie topping. Please share what low-sugar (ETA: 5 grams max) topping or mix-ins you used when you were in those early stages (ETA experimenting with flavors and things go a bit awry) that had a strong enough flavor to cover all sins? Whipped cream is not going to do it

Salty and Sweet Popcorn Icecream 😍

Literally so smooth, it's insane.

Used 60g of Per4m Salty and Sweet Popcorn Whey, 90g of Gut Health Coconut Collab Yogurt, 200ml of Skinny Food Co White Chocolate syrup, 350ml of water, 1 - 2g Xanthum activated with the water in the microwave, 2 teaspoons of sweetener, a couple of good pinches of salt.

I also added 3g of my collagen powder but thats more for health reasons - doesnt make a difference to texture.

Mix / blend well.

341 calories and 54g protein for the whole tub! (47 of that comes from the collagen so this could easily be under 300 and slightly lower in protein)

One of the nicest ones I've made so far!

Warheads Candy Ice Cream (Sour Ice Cream)

This is from my latest video, where I made WARHEADS Ice Cream. I'm a 90's kid, and I loved Warheads growing up. So I thought it would be a fun experiment to make a sour ice cream using Warheads! This ended up tasting really good and really sour thanks to the citric acid I added. If you're a fan of Warheads or sour candy, then you'll love this ice cream.

Here is the video of me making/tasting it if anyone is interested :)

I have a YouTube Channel where I make unique/unusual ice creams with my Ninja Creami once a week, and would love it if you checked out my channel :)

Ingredients (Half Pint, 16oz container) Ninja CREAMi 7-in-1 Ice Cream Maker

  • 5 Warheads (Crushed)
  • 1 Tbsp of Cream Cheese
  • 1 Cup of Half & Half
  • 2 Tbsp of Sugar
  • 1/4 Tsp of Guar Gum
  • 1/2 Tsp of Citric Acid

Ninja creami base that feels like a full fat ice cream WITHOUT protein powder or xanthan gum!

I have cracked the code for a creamy and delicious ninja creami base that feel like the real deal! It is incredible and can be incredibly versatile, all while have 40 grams of protein and 260-300 ish kcals

The base is:

  1. Vanilla to taste
  2. Sweeteners to taste
  3. A pinch of salt

Then, you can add raspberries, blackberries, peaches, apricots, cocoa, coffee, anything really.

After you added all the ingredients, mix them in a blender till they are smooth.

Then freeze in the container from 16-24 hours

After the time has passed, spin 2 times on lite ice cream setting or after the first, add the mix-ins and spin on the mix-in setting 1 times.

My favourite is definitely the cookies and cream with 2 Oreo cookies as mix-ins (adds only 40 kcals, but well worth it) and cherry brownie one.

You make the base, then add cocoa (around 5-10 ish grams), then coffee, and then 100-150 grams of cherries. The result is a creamy cocoa-ey flavour with a hint of sweetness and sourness from the cherry.

Edit: guys, thanks for educating me about eggs, I was unknowingly salmonellamaxxing this entire time 🤣 are egg yolks also dangerous? Egg yolks are commonly used in making real ice cream, so maybe it is not as dangerous?

Fruit Loops Recipe

Hey guys, this was absolutely bombbb. I usually don’t like cereal flavors but this one was different. Macros can widely range depending on how much fruit loops you add. As far as the macros for this recipe how I made specifically I would estimate between 450 - 500cal and 72g protein.

Recipe/tutorial :

Add the following to a blender

- 2 cups Krogers Carbmaster ultra filtered non fat milk (or any milk similar to of choice)

- 1/8 tsp xanthan gum

- 2 of 1/8 tsp Monk fruit powder

- 2 scoops of RAW vanilla protein powder

- I also added 1/4 tbsp sugar free instant pudding mix but that’s a personal preference and is not necessary but I think will help if you have.

- hand full of fruit loops cereal obv 😂

BLENDDDD on max speed for 10 seconds then stop then 10 more seconds on max speed then, pour into tub and freeze.

Pop into your ninja creami on lite ice cream.

Re-spin 1 time

Add another handful of fruit loops and press mix in

I would usually add some fruit loops on the top to make it look better but this is supposed to be healthy and I already added 2 large handfuls, but feel free to add another handful on top and enjoy.
(Also I’m a taller guy so a handful to me might be different compared to someone smaller)

Refreezing after processing?

What’s the verdict on refreezing after processing? Sometimes I want to process at a very unsociable time due to work shifts. If you refreeze after processing can you then enjoy straight from the freezer (after suitable thawing time) or would it stay like a block of ice for hours?

Ninja Creami leaves a solid block of ice at the bottom

Hey everyone,

I'm having an issue with my Ninja Creami that I can't seem to figure out.

My recipe is basically Rule 1 chocolate protein powder, whole milk, and a small amount of water. I actually reduced the water because I read that water freezes too hard, but I'm still getting the same problem.

I blend everything in a blender until it's completely smooth, pour it into the Creami pint, freeze it for at least 24 hours, and then run it in the Creami.

When it starts spinning, the machine shakes pretty violently, to the point where I'm worried I'm going to damage it. After the cycle finishes, the top and sides are nice and creamy, but there's always a solid frozen puck at the bottom that the blade doesn't seem to scrape at all (see photos).

Has anyone else experienced this?

0 calorie ice cream

One full bottle of the french vanilla creamer, and a splash of each of the rest. Actually pretty decent
