Looking for a healthy and delicious treat? Try this Chocolate Protein Ice Cream! It’s super easy to make and packs 30 grams of protein while low in sugar. Using a Ninja Creami machine, you can make this effortless ice cream that tastes like a healthy treat. Enjoy a tasty and nutritious dessert with our chocolate protein ice cream!

The Ninja Creami is amazing for making ice cream! I’ve seen so many cool ice cream recipes on social media lately. This one has been super popular on TikTok and Instagram, so of course, I had to try it out.

Since getting my Ninja Creami, I’ve made ice cream weekly. My husband can’t eat regular ice cream, so experimenting with dairy and non-dairy recipes has been fun.

Recently, my daughter asked me to try a protein drink ice cream she saw on TikTok. I thought, why not try it and see how it turns out?

I have to admit, it’s not quite as amazing as my chocolate dairy-free ice cream recipe. But if you’re after a high-protein treat low in sugar and calories, you’ll definitely enjoy this one. And you’ll be so amazed at how simple it is to make!

Instructions

Step 2 – Add The Remaining Ingredients

Slowly mix the coconut cream and oat milk until fully combined and the sugar is dissolved. Pour into a Ninja pint container, cover, and freeze for 24 hours.

Step 3 – Churn Ice Cream

Take the ice cream out of the freezer and remove the lid. Place the pint container in the Ninja churning container in the Ninja Creami machine. Select and press the ice cream button. If the ice cream is not creamy enough, add a bit more protein milk.
