Make the Ice Cream Mixture
- Pour the caramel protein shake, unsweetened almond milk, pudding mix, and caramel syrup into a small blender and blend together until the pudding mix is completely combined with the liquids. Pour the mixture into the 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, pour in a tablespoon or two of unsweetened almond milk and then respin. You may have to repeat this process a couple of times.
- Pour the caramel chips and sea salt down the center of the ice cream and then process on mix-ins.
- Remove the pint from the machine and enjoy!

Notes
Can I add a caramel swirl using the Ninja Creami?
No, you cannot create caramel swirls in the actual Ninja Creami. The swirl will be fully incorporated with the rest of the ice cream and you will end up with caramel-flavored ice cream. You can however swirl in some caramel by hand after processing it.
What can I use instead of almond milk?
You can use any milk or non-dairy milk like coconut milk, cashew milk, or oat milk. The flavor and texture may vary once the protein ice cream is processed.
