3-Ingredient Cookies and Cream Ninja Creami Ice Cream


INGREDIENTS:

  • 240 mL 2% Reduced Fat Fairlife Milk 
  • 1 Scoop Cake Batter Protein Powder (I use Clean Simple Eats Protein Powder)
  • 4 Oreo Thins

INGREDIENTS:


INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Pour 220 mL of Fairlife milk into the freezer-safe Creami container.
  2. Add a scoop of the Simply Vanilla protein powder and blend it in using a hand mixer until well combined. If you'd like to make it sweeter, you can add other ingredients, such as vanilla extract or a sweetener. I find that this isn't necessary, and it already has the right amount of sweetness. 
  3. Freeze overnight or at least 6-8 hours until it solidifies.
  4. Once it's frozen solid, transfer the container to the Ninja Creami machine according to the manufacturer's instructions, and select the ice cream setting.
  5. After the initial creami phase is completed, remove the container and add 20 mL of milk to soften the ice cream. Then, re-spin the mixture in the Creami machine.
  6. To finish, place 4 Oreo Thins in the center of the Creami cup, then press the mix-in button to integrate them into the ice cream.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Indulging in a sweet treat doesn't have to mean sacrificing nutritional value, especially with the Ninja Creami recipe provided above. This protein-packed recipe offers a guilt-free solution for those with a sweet tooth. By incorporating the Simply Vanilla protein powder into the Fairlife milk, this recipe satisfies cravings and provides a substantial dose of protein to support muscle repair and growth. Throwing in some Oreo Thins gives the mix a nice crunch and a chocolatey flavor that makes every spoonful feel like a treat. Whether enjoyed as a post-workout refuel or simply as a delicious dessert, this Ninja Creami creation is a perfect combination of taste and nutrition, offering a satisfying treat without compromising on health goals.


The cool thing about the Ninja Creami recipe is that you can make it your own by adding whatever you like. There are endless possibilities to fit your taste buds, so get creative! For those looking to switch up the toppings and add a fruity twist, simply replace the Oreo Thins with a mix of fresh berries such as strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. The fruit in this dessert is not only super pretty but also adds a ton of flavor to every bite. It's like a burst of sweetness and color all at once! Alternatively, for a nutty variation, consider sprinkling chopped almonds, walnuts, or pecans over the ice cream, adding a satisfying crunch and a dose of healthy fats. For those who prefer a classic cookie crunch, swap out the Oreo Thins for your favorite cookie crumbles, whether it's chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, or peanut butter. Whichever variation you choose, this adaptable Ninja Creami recipe offers a delicious and nutritious dessert option that can be tailored to suit any taste preference.


Note: With the Ninja Creami recipe, you can easily switch up your ice cream game. Start with the base, vanilla ice cream, and then mix in berries, nuts, cookies, or whatever you're craving. For those with dietary restrictions, you can use almond or cashew milk or any milk you'd prefer.
