How to Make Ninja Creami Coffee Protein Ice Cream
Ingredients You’ll Need
All you need to create this amazing Ninja Creami coffee ice cream recipe are these six ingredients:
- Fairlife Fat Free Milk
- Cold Brew Coffee
- Vanilla Whey/Casein Blend Protein Powder
- Sugar Free/Fat Free White Chocolate Pudding Mix
- Sweetener
- Salt
If you would like to add the mix-ins, try:
- 2 Oreo Thins
- Mini Chocolate Chips
Potential Substitutions
Here are some potential ingredient substitutions that you can swap out while making your Ninja Creami coffee ice cream recipe:
Milk: You can use almond milk or any other dairy-free milk alternative such as soy or oat milk.
Protein Powder: Subbing with a vegan protein powder can suck because a lot of them don’t taste that good. However, the ones we created most definitely do not. You can substitute using a 1:1 ratio (e.g. if 30g protein is used in the recipe, sub with 30g vegan protein powder).
Cookie Butter: If you do not have cookie butter, we’d recommend just substituting it with powdered peanut butter. It won’t taste exactly the same, but it’ll be a close enough comparison.
Pudding Mix: If you don’t have any pudding mix on hand, here is a substitution we recommend: Use either xanthan gum or guar gum. They act as thickeners to improve texture, reduce iciness, and to stabilize your coffee ice cream Ninja Creami recipe ice cream. Start off by using only about 1 – 2g because they’re super strong. For precise results, use a food scale if you have one.
Step-by-Step Guide
- Add all of the ingredients (except for the mix-ins) into your Ninja Creami pint container. Use a small hand blender and mix until all the ingredients are smooth and evenly combined.
- Place the Ninja Creami pint container in the freezer until it is frozen. (I freeze mine the day before so it can freeze overnight.) Pro Tip: To make ice cream for the whole week, make six more pints of ice cream.
- Once it is frozen, add it to your Ninja Creami holster and press the “Lite Ice Cream” function. This function only needs to run one time. Once it is finished, you will have an amazing cold brew coffee protein ice cream! If you want the Oreo chip flavor, it’s mix-ins time!
- To add the Oreos, make a few holes in the ice cream. Place your Oreo thins and mini chocolate chips inside the holes. Press the mix-ins function on the Ninja Creami. Once it’s finished spinning, enjoy!
What to Do If It’s Too Powdery or Too Icy
If your ice cream is too powdery or icy, it could be because of the timing and the speed of the blade. I normally use the “Ice Cream”, “Lite Ice Cream”, and “Sorbet” functions.
Run the “Ice Cream” function if you want a dense ice cream rather than a lighter soft serve style consistency. This setting runs for only 60 seconds and has a lower blade speed, thus allowing for a denser end product since less air has been whipped into it. Once it’s finished running, you can assess and see if it’s the consistency you desire. I recommend only running it once especially if you are adding mix-ins. You’ll want to be careful how many times you run it through because it’ll start to melt.
