Ingredients
  

For the Ice Cream Base
  • 2 cups Fairlife Skim Milk Adds creaminess and protein; substitute with any low-fat milk if unavailable.
  • 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk Increases volume and reduces calories; use any non-dairy milk, such as soy or oat.
  • 1 cup Vanilla Protein Powder Boosts protein content; choose any favorite flavor or brand for flavor variation.
  • 1 package Sugar-Free Vanilla Jello Pudding Mix Provides creamy texture; do not skip it; it’s crucial for consistency.
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon Enhances flavor profile; adjust amount based on taste preference.
For Flavor and Texture
  • 1 cup Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal Primary flavor source; substitute with any cinnamon-flavored cereal for a twist.
  • 1 cup Additional Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal for Topping For added crunch; always add fresh when serving.

Equipment

  • Ninja Creami

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a Ninja Creami pint container, pour in Fairlife skim milk, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla protein powder, sugar-free vanilla Jello pudding mix, and ground cinnamon. Whisk these ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, blended mixture.
  2. Gently fold in the Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal into the liquid mixture, ensuring it's evenly distributed. Allow the cereal to steep for 15 minutes at room temperature.
  3. After the cereal has steeped, carefully strain it out from the mixture, ensuring no chunks remain that could disrupt your ice cream's smoothness.
  4. Once the ice cream base is fully frozen, remove it from the freezer. Run the pint container under hot water for about 60 seconds to slightly soften the edges.
  5. Select the Lite Ice Cream setting on your Ninja Creami, then press start to initiate the spinning.
  6. Once the spinning is complete, open the lid and fold in additional Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal for a delightful crunch in each scoop.
