Servings: 1 pint

Ingredients

1 ½ cups vanilla Premier Protein shake
2 Tbsp monk fruit sweetener or granulated white sugar
1 Tbsp instant vanilla pudding mix
¼ tsp mint extract
3-5 drops green food coloring
¼ cup Oreo Cookies crushed

Instructions

Combine vanilla Premier Protein, pudding mix, extract, and food coloring in the Ninja Creami pint container. Stir well.
Freeze the pint container on a flat surface for 24 hours or until frozen solid.
Run the frozen pint under hot water for 30 seconds to loosen the sides. Remove the lid and place the container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami.
Secure the outer bowl lid, insert it into the Ninja Creami machine, and press the Lite Ice Cream button. Let the cycle complete.
Check the texture; if powdery, use the Re-spin function for a smoother consistency.
Create a hole in the center of the ice cream and add Oreos. Use the Mix-In button to evenly distribute.
Top with more cookies and enjoy this creamy treat!

Notes

Want ultra-creamy frozen yogurt? Add ½ teaspoon xanthan gum before freezing to maintain texture. This can be substituted for the pudding mix.

Chop mix-ins into small pieces so they distribute evenly and blend smoothly.

Place the pint on a flat 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, maple syrup or agave syrup for a different flavor profile.
