Tips

  • Prep in advance: Allow your pint at least 24 hours to freeze before spinning.
  • Avoid icy edges: Run your pint container under warm water for 30 seconds before running it through the Ninja Creami machine, or run a butter knife or spoon along the sides after the initial spin.
  • Respins: If your ice cream isn’t smooth and creamy after the first respin, you can respin until you get your desired consistency.
  • Don’t overfill the container: The ice cream will expand in volume as it spins.
  • Time Saving Tip: Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, then pour into the Creami pint and freeze. However, macerating the strawberries creates super-flavorful ice cream.
  • Mix-ins: Add after the Respin cycle, then press the Mix-Ins cycle. Or add them to the top after mixing.
  • Frozen strawberries may be used but need to be thawed and mashed. The Creami blade is not designed to process uneven chunks or pieces of frozen fruit.
  • Any type of milk can be used, but heavy cream will produce the thickest, creamiest texture.
