Ingredients
  

Base Recipe
  • 240 g Unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 240 g Fairlife fat-free milk
  • 20-30 g Allulose
  • 37 g Transparent Labs Salted Caramel Chocolate Protein Powder
  • ¼ tsp Xanthan gum
  • 1 pinch Salt
Optional Mix-Ins (Included In Macro Estimate)
  • 5 Chocolate caramel Rolo candies
  • 7 g English toffee baking bits
  • 15 g Dark chocolate Catalina Crunch cereal
  • Sugar free salted caramel sauce Zero calorie version

Equipment

  • Ninja Creami (This Recipe Is Designed for the 24oz Deluxe Pint)
  • Food Scale
  • Emersion Blender

Method
 

  1. Prep The Base:
    Add 220g almond milk and 220g Fairlife milk to the Ninja Creami pint.
    Add sweetener (20–30g), a pinch of salt, and 1 scoop (30-37g depending on serving size) of protein powder of choice.
    Sprinkle ¼ tsp xanthan gum on top.
  2. Blend:
    Use an immersion blender directly in the pint to fully combine. A regular blender or frother works, but an immersion blender gives the best ice cream texture.
  3. Optional Prep For Mix-Ins:
    Refrigerate candies like Rolos to keep them from melting too fast during mixing.
    Freeze softer mix-ins like brownies or cookies.
    Avoid freezing harder candies, which may become too brittle.
  4. Ready To Spin:
    Scrape down any center hump in the frozen pint (do not use hot water on the sides of the pint).
    Optional: Add a splash of almond milk, Fairlife, or sugar-free caramel syrup to the top before spinning.
    Run the Ninja Creami on the Lite Ice Cream setting.
  5. Prepare Mix-Ins During First Spin:
    Cut Rolos into halves or quarters.
    Weigh out 15g Catalina Crunch and 7g toffee bits.
  6. Check The Texture:
    If powdery, run on the Mix-In setting once to smooth it out.
    If creamy, move to the next step.
  7. Add Mix-Ins:
    Carve a hole in the center of the pint and add mix-ins.
    Optional: Save some for topping and add a drizzle of sugar-free caramel to the center.
    Run on Mix-In setting again.
  8. Finish:
    Top with any reserved mix-ins and extra caramel drizzle, then enjoy!

Notes

This recipe is designed for the larger 24oz Ninja Creami Deluxe Pint. If using a smaller cup size, be sure to adjust the ingredient ratios accordingly.

 

A Quick Note On Allulose:

 
This recipe contains Allulose which is a low-calorie sweetener that isn’t fully digested by the body, so it provides only about 0.4 calories per gram instead of the usual 4. That’s why the total calorie count may look lower than what you’d expect based on the carb content—it’s calculated based on how much is actually metabolized, not just total carbs.
