FAQs

Can I make this without protein powder?

Yes, but protein texture and macros will change. Replace with Greek yogurt or cottage cheese.

Why is my Ninja Creami ice cream crumbly?

It needs re-spinning with liquid. This is normal for high-protein recipes.

What protein powder works best?

Whey-casein blends or casein provide creamier results than whey isolate.

Can I store leftovers?

Yes, but re-spin before serving again for the best texture.

Are sprinkles healthy?

Use low-sugar or natural sprinkles for better macros.
