Wow, thanks for the tip about the Ninja Creami. I've been making ice cream daily for months using just a Nutribullet, but it's a lot of work. I use frozen mango, homemade almond milk, and flax. I don't use any sweeteners - mango is already sweet enough (especially living a sugar free life, my taste buds are more sensitive)
- linsomniac 4y agoThe Creami is definitely easy. My typical run takes me about a minute or two at most to make a pint, and my run is similar to yours (fruit, I use yogurt, allulose to overcome the bitterness of the yogurt). Try using some Xantham gum in yours, just a pinch, it helps keep it creamy. I should try adding flax or hemp hearts, thanks for that tip!
- triyambakam 4y agoDo you need to blend it first before you put it into the container to be frozen, or can you simply put in the frozen fruit? I was looking into buying one but I wasn't able to figure that part out yet.
- linsomniac 4y agoNot really. I'll stir it, but not blend it. Say I put in frozen strawberries, yogurt, xantham gum and allulose, I'll then stir it up... So huge chunks of strawberries in a yogurt. When I run it through the Creami, it comes out smooth pink. If I want chunks in it, I'll add fruit after it's done, then put it back in the Creami and push the "mix-in" button, which is a much slower, shorter run. The main run of the Creami moves this blade down through the frozen mixture, taking ~3 minutes to go down through 4" and back up, so it does it in very small increments. Kind of ultra fine shaved ice plus blending all at the same time.
