Ingredient notes

This recipe uses a variety of fresh and natural components to create a sweet, creamy, and delicious dessert.

This ice cream uses a traditional vanilla ice cream base that I use for many of my ninja creami recipes that include:

• Almond Milk: you can use your favorite milk or nut milk but we love to use unsweetened vanilla almond milk for this recipe.
• Vanilla Protein Powder: we used a low carb vanilla protein powder that adds a creamy texture and enhances the flavor of the ice cream, making it even more delicious and enjoyable to eat
• Vanilla Extract: enhances all the flavors
• Sweetener: we use a ¼ cup brown sugar sweetener, we used erythritol but feel free to use your favorite sweetener.
• Cream Cheese: slightly tangy and gives a rich creaminess to the ice cream.

To make it a carrot cake flavor we add the following ingredients:

• Cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, chopped pecans and shredded carrots

Steps by step instructions

How to make the carrot cake ice cream

STEP 1: In a blender mix together all the ingredients except the chopped pecans and the shredded carrots. Blend on high for about 30 seconds, then pour into the ninja creami pint and freeze for 24 hours.

STEP 2: after 24 hours remove the pint from the freezer, remove the lid and place it in the ninja creami outer container. Lock on the blade lid and run it through the machine using the "smoothie bowl" option on the ice cream maker.

STEP 3: with a butter knife create a 1" well down the centre of the ice cream and add in the chopped pecans and the shredded carrot. Place it back in the ninja creami ice cream maker and use the "mix in" button.

Once the spinning cycle is complete it will be ready for serving.

Recipe tips

Here are 2 tips to making the best ninja creami carrot cake ice cream ever!

• Blend the ingredients thoroughly: To create smooth and creamy ice cream, it's important to blend the ingredients thoroughly. Make sure to blend the cream cheese and almond milk mixture until they are completely smooth before storing the ice cream in the creami pint.
• Chill the mixture before freezing: Once you've blended the ingredients together and placed it in the ninja creami pint, chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least an hour before freezing. This will help the flavors to meld together and make the ice cream even more flavorful and delicious.

How to store the carrot cake ice cream?

Once you've spun the Ninja Creami Carrot Cake Ice Cream in the machine, you don't need to use it again.

Simply transfer any leftover ice cream to an airtight container and store it in the freezer until you're ready to enjoy it.

When you want to serve the ice cream again, let it thaw for a few minutes at room temperature before scooping.
