Ice Cream Base
- 2 cups milk (whole or your preferred milk)
- 2 scoops protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients including milk, protein powder, honey, and sea salt for the ice cream base.
- Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the milk, protein powder, honey, and sea salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring the protein powder is fully dissolved.
- Freeze Mixture: Pour the blended mixture into the Ninja Creami pint container. Freeze the container for at least 24 hours until the mixture is completely solid.
- Process in Ninja Creami: Remove the frozen pint from the freezer, install it into the Ninja Creami machine, and select the ‘Ice Cream’ function to churn and create a creamy texture. If the consistency is too powdery, use the ‘Add Cream’ function to improve creaminess.
- Serve: Once processed, scoop the ice cream into bowls and enjoy immediately, or return to the freezer to firm up further before serving.
Notes
- Use whole milk or a milk alternative for creamier texture.
- Adjust honey for desired sweetness.
- Ensure the mixture is fully frozen before processing in the Ninja Creami for best results.
- Protein powder flavor can be adjusted to complement the honey and sea salt.
- Store leftover ice cream in the freezer and re-process if it becomes too icy.
