Instructions

Make the Ice Cream Mixture

Pour the almond milk, thawed berries, protein powder, sugar substitute, vanilla bean paste, and guar gum into a small blender and blend until all ingredients are well combined. Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami pint container.
Freeze on a level surface for 24 hours. Your freezer should be between 9 and -7 degrees Fahrenheit. To avoid getting a bump on the top of the frozen mixture, freeze with the lid off of the container.

Process the Ice Cream

After 24 hours, remove the pint container from the freezer.
Place the pint container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami and then process on "LITE ICE CREAM."
If the ice cream is dry or crumbly looking (like sand), pour in a tablespoon or two of unsweetened almond milk and then re-spin. If the ice cream looks like little balls of ice cream, respin without adding liquid. You may have to repeat this process a couple of times.
Dig a well down the center of the ice cream and pour in thawed mixed berries. Process on mix-ins.
Remove the pint from the machine and enjoy!

Notes

Can I use different berries for this recipe?

Yes! You can use any combination of blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, or any other berry that you can find.

Can frozen fruit be used in this recipe?

Yes! But, you need to thaw it before using. Since the ice cream base needs to blended first, the berries need to be thawed enough to blend together with the other ingredients. For mix-ins, be sure to fully thaw the berries before adding them. It's super convenient to buy frozen bags of mixed berries for this recipe!

Can you feel the seeds in the finished ice cream?

You can. So, if you don't like the seeds you would need to remove the seeds before adding them to the ice cream. You can do this by mashing the fruit through a mesh sieve.
