This ninja creami vanilla ice cream is incredibly smooth & creamy, with swirls of salted caramel, and a homemade protein brownie crumbled throughout.
High protein, no refined sugars, and gluten free. I used my favorite clean ingredient & delicious French vanilla protein powder from Just Ingredients brand. Save sitewide with code colleenF10.

Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 1 whole Lite Coconut Milk, 1 can
- 1/3 cup Vanilla Protein Powder
- 2 Tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 3 grams Xanthum Gum
- 1/2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
- 1 Tbsp Pure Maple Syrup
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Cashew Butter, Or peanut butter
- 1 Tbsp Collagen
- 1 whole Fudgey Protein Brownies (click for recipe)


Process
- Froth / mix ice cream ingredients together until clumps are gone
- Pour into ninja creami container and freeze overnight
- Spin on scoop able ice cream mode. I did one re-spin after for perfect creaminess
- Whisk caramel ingredients together until smooth & drippy
- Make a divot in the center of your center, pour caramel inside, and respin once (this will fully combine it, but you can skip this step and just drizzle it on top too)
- Crumble up a protein brownie for topping
- Enjoy!


Notes
Xanthum gum can be hard to digest if you’ve got a sensitivity to gums or have a sensitive stomach in general. This is a very small amount so I haven’t found any issues at all, but it adds the perfect creaminess!
