Ingredients

Vanilla Premier Protein shake – creates the high-protein creamy base for the ice cream. I like to use either the chocolate or vanilla flavours in this easy recipe. You can substitute with milk if you want.
Vanilla pudding mix – helps to thicken the ice cream and give it a rich flavour.
Vanilla extract – enhances the overall flavour.
Mini eggs, chopped – chopping the eggs is important here because the Ninja Creami blades have a hard time busting through mini eggs.

Instructions

1. Combine the first three ingredients in the pint and stir.

2. Freeze container on a flat surface for 24 hours or until frozen solid.

3. Remove from the freezer, run under hot water for 30 seconds and take off the lid. Place container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami, then lock the outer bowl lid into place.

4. Secure the outer bowl into the Ninja Creami machine. Press the Lite Ice Cream button and allow the cycle to complete.

5. Remove the outer bowl lid. If the ice cream is still powdery, add a splash of protein shake then put it back in the machine and press the re-spin button.

6. While the ice cream is mixing, chop up the mini eggs.

Tips & Tricks

You can substitute a ½ teaspoon of xanthan gum for the dry pudding mix before freezing. This helps prevent ice crystals and still gives it that classic ice cream consistency.
Chop mix-ins into small pieces so they distribute evenly and blend smoothly.
Place the pint on a flat, level surface in your freezer to prevent freezing at an angle.
If the ice cream is too hard, use the Re-spin function for a softer consistency.
Let the frozen pint sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes or run under hot water for 30 seconds before spinning to prevent icy chunks.
If a dome forms on top while freezing, try freezing without the lid or scrape off any excess before spinning to protect your blades.
If you’re looking to reduce sugar content, consider using natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup for a different flavor profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I make this recipe higher in protein?
Use Premier Protein shakes or Fairlife milk instead of regular milk or cream. You can also mix in a scoop of your favorite protein powder before freezing! Try different protein shake flavors, such as chocolate or vanilla.

Can I add different mix-ins?
Of course! Swap out mini eggs for peanut butter cups, crushed Oreos or your favorite candy pieces.

How should I store leftovers?
Flatten the top before refreezing in the pint or an airtight container. If it hardens too much, reprocess it using the same mode you originally used.
