Equipment

  • Ninja Creami

Ingredients

  • 2 cups 1% milk
  • 1 serving vanilla whey protein powder (35g) or any vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla sugar-free Jello pudding mix
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a Ninja Creami pint. Whisk 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 mode. Add a dash of milk if needed and re-spin until you reach your desired consistency. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Protein content will depend on the brand of protein powder and milk.
  • Use Fairlife milk for higher protein. You can also use 2% milk for a creamier consistency, or skim milk for less calories.
  • Run the pint under warm water to soften the sides and reduce ice crystals.
  • After spinning, you can add any mix-ins you like and blend on mix-in mode.
  • If you cannot finish the entire pint, flatten the top and re-freeze. Spin on "Lite Ice Cream" next time.
