Notes

This recipe is a neutral ice cream base, not a finished flavor.
I use this base to build many of the Ninja Creami flavors featured in this guide. Before freezing, you can customize it with ingredients like cocoa powder, brewed coffee, fruit, nut butters, citrus zest, or extracts.
For exact flavor combinations, ratios, and tested variations, head to my Healthy Ninja Creami Recipes collection, where I show how I turn this base into strawberry, chocolate, coffee, banana chocolate, cookies & cream, and more.
