Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 ½ cups milk of choice – dairy or non-dairy.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Mix the base: In the Ninja Pint whisk together the milk, protein powder, pudding mix, and maple syrup (if using). Make sure it’s smooth and well combined.
   
2. Freeze: Freeze for 24 hours
   
3. Spin: Place the frozen pint into your Ninja Creami and run the “Lite Ice Cream”  function. Scrape down the sides and respin.
   
4. Enjoy: Scoop it out and dig in! Add toppings or mix-ins if you like.

Storage

If you don’t finish the whole pint, smooth the top, cover, and return to the freezer. To serve again, simply respin in the Ninja Creami until creamy. Texture may be slightly different. 

Protein Boost

This Ninja Creami ice cream packs in 44 grams of protein per pint—32 grams from the protein powder plus 12 grams from the milk (if using dairy). That makes it not just a sweet treat but also a powerhouse for recovery, satiety, and muscle repair. Whether you enjoy it post-workout or as a satisfying dessert, you’ll be sneaking in a major protein boost without even noticing.
