Ninja Creami recipes

I am 100% fully and utterly converted to my Ninja Creami. This is (naturally) despite the fact that I debated buying one because I wondered if it would be overrated and underused. Now that I have one, I can confidently say I couldn’t have been more wrong. The Ninja Creami has well and truly earned it’s place on my Kitchen bench; as have these Ninja Creami recipes in my regular rotation.

Ninja Creami recipes

In this post, I am sharing all of my Ninja Creami recipes so far. Some of them are on my website and others are in my Ninja Creami e-books. Each e-book is dedicated to a different dietary requirement – high protein, low FODMAP, sugar free, etc. Every recipe in this roundup will specify the dietary requirements it caters to.

For ease, I have also grouped the recipes into categories – more decadent recipes, dairy free recipes, healthier recipes and so on. It is my hope that you find the recipe you’re looking for. If you don’t, leave a comment suggestion! I am obsessed with Ninja Creami recipes and always open to ideas.

If you are new to making Ninja Creami ice cream, have a read of my guide to using the machine. It goes through all the tips I have learned so far; everything from mixing up flavours to cleaning your machine.

Decadent Ninja Creami recipes that use cream

These recipes are all designed to replicate a classic ice cream. They use sugar and cream for a rich and delicious creamy taste. Where specified, these ice cream recipes have the option to be made with lactose free milk and cream (not dairy free milk and cream). This gives you the option to make lactose free/low FODMAP ice cream too.

Ninja Creami cookies and cream ice cream

I have never really had the chance to eat much cookies and cream ice cream as a gluten free diner. When I got my hands on some gluten free Oreos, though, I knew I had to try it. Now I can officially say that I have been missing out – cookies and cream is an elite flavour.

This recipe uses white sugar instead of condensed milk, which makes it an easy ice cream base if you need lactose free ice cream. Use gluten free chocolate sandwich cookies to make it gluten free. Of note: gluten free Oreos contain oat flour, so choose an alternative if that doesn’t work for you.

High protein strawberry Ninja Creami ice cream

This strawberry ice cream recipe uses cottage cheese as the creamy base and for a little extra protein boost. I don’t want to over hype the combination, but it has a mild strawberry cheesecake flavour to me. Another bonus? The combination of whey protein and cottage cheese makes a light and fluffy ice cream if it is processed enough times. Think mousse crossed with ice cream.

This is a recipe in my Ninja Creami protein ice cream e-book (sweetened with agave or maple syrup version).

Okay, this flavour combination though? Incredible. I personally like the crunch from the seeds, but you can just use the pulp if you prefer. If you do, double the passionfruit from 100g to 200g.
