  • ¼ cup 2% milk or any type of milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 serving vanilla whey protein powder (35g) or any vanilla protein powder

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to the Ninja Creami pint. Stir and freeze overnight.
  • Run the pint under warm water for 30 seconds then dry it off. Place in the outer bowl.
  • Blend on “Lite Ice Cream”, then add 1-2 tablespoon extra orange juice and “Re-spin”. Re-spin again if you want a softer texture. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

  • Use almond milk and a plant-based vanilla protein powder if you are vegan or dairy-free.
  • Run the pint under warm water to soften the sides and reduce ice crystals.
  • If you cannot finish the entire pint, flatten the top and re-freeze. Spin on "Lite Ice Cream" next time.
