Prepare the base
-
Add the peanut butter, whey protein isolate, Greek yogurt, milk, honey, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender.
-
Blend until completely smooth and no streaks of peanut butter or pockets of powder remain.
Freeze and spin
-
Pour the mixture into a Ninja CREAMi pint, without exceeding the MAX FILL line.
-
Close with the storage lid and freeze flat for 24 hours.
-
Once fully frozen, run the CREAMIFIT program.
No CREAMIFIT? Use LITE ICE CREAM instead.
-
If the texture is powdery or crumbly after the first cycle, run RE-SPIN.
Still not right after re-spinning? See how to fix the texture .
Serve
Serve immediately, while the ice cream is still nice and creamy.
Storing leftovers
Flatten any remaining ice cream to level the surface before returning the pint to the freezer. This will make the next spin easier and reduce unnecessary strain on the machine. Learn more about after-serving habits.
Tips
- Use peanut butter made only from peanuts for a clean roasted flavor and predictable sweetness.
- Unflavored whey protein isolate keeps the peanut flavor prominent; flavored powders can noticeably change the sweetness.
