Best Ninja Creami Tips
Ninja Creami’s can make smoothie bowls, ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and even milkshakes!
No, My frozen yogurt was ready to be blended in the Ninja Creami after 6 hours.
No, Always blend it first. That is how you ruin the blade.
Too Much Powdered Ingredient: If you're using powdered ingredients (like protein powder or certain sweeteners), they can sometimes create a chalky texture if too much is added. Try reducing the amount or using a different type of sweetener or flavoring.
Not Enough Fat: The fat content in the recipe plays a big role in smooth texture. If your mixture doesn't have enough fat, it can lead to a grainy or chalky texture. You might want to adjust by adding more cream or whole milk, depending on the recipe.

- Ninja Creami Vanilla Ice Cream - 1 tablespoon cream cheese, ⅓ cup sugar, ¾ cup heavy cream, 1 cup milk, 3-4 sandwich or Oreo cookies.
