10 Ninja Creami Tips! Get The Perfect Pint, Every Time

[@Venetia2]

You can use plant based milks and get a creamy texture. I am vegan and only use soya milk and it comes out perfect

[@YandiraMelon]

Suggestions: Matcha / key lime

[@kaizer-777]

I recommend guar gum and locust bean gum for ice cream. Xanthan gum is slimy to me, no matter how little I use.

[@Selfdev-fc6dl]

what texture does it give ?

[@kaizer-777]

@@Selfdev-fc6dl It just seems a little less icy, but it really depends on what you're making. No gum will magically make a low-fat mixture feel like full-fat ice cream.

[@PardosFitnessJourney]

you should try to freeze the mix ins before hand maybe you will like it for the brownie i freeze my cookies before hand

[@josephroa4475]

My favorite binders are cottage or ricotta cheese instead of pudding. Sometimes still add about a gram of Xantham or Guar gum.

[@MsBombastix]

Mascarpone is elite as a binder.

[@LinkBuildingServicex]

🤢

[@aussieland1783]

Xantham gum helps with the icing, if mixed well.

[@ketayunketayun382]

Would love to see a pistachio. Ty

[@FitFoodAE]

I’ve gotten requests for this but I hate that flavour 😭😭

[@Studiovette]

Here's a tip for you. You don't have to eat in one go. You can spin just the top part of the container and eat that one night and then spin the bottom for the next night. No need to spin the entire container at once. 😊

[@LeCaleb]

No 😂😂😂

[@FitFoodAE]

Sorry this makes no sense to me like how?? LOL

[@Studiovette]

@@FitFoodAE I just realized you have the basic Ninja Cremi version. The Deluxe version allows you to mix the top only, bottom only, or full pint. It's game changing 😂

[@myaccount99006]

even if you don't have the Deluxe, could you just tamp down what you don't eat and respin later?

[@Studiovette]

@@myaccount99006 I actually used to do that before I realized I had the feature. It works. Just make sure it's tamped down as best as possible and flat on top.

[@KiwiGran1]

When I have a half pot in the freezer, I put it in the microwave for 10-20 seconds to soften it before serving. I don't even respin it.

[@FitFoodAE]

Ok this is a good tip

[@laurasegers409]

Lemon, and butter pecan ice cream

[@blkbrn1952]

My Creami arrives in a couple of days. I already have the pints so I made a couple of recipes to be ready to go when it arrives. I tasted the mixtures before I put them into the freezer. They tasted more like pudding instead of ice cream and I must say I am disappointed. Will they taste better after they are mixed? Would I be better off using some other ingredient as a thickener?

[@mr.meesicks1801]

Yes, they'll taste better when the machine does its magic. Don't overthink it too much

[@vernabohnert635]

Thank you for sharing, I love my ninja creamie!

[@FitFoodAE]

Of course!! Me too

[@catperson776]

Idk if you mentioned this but something that makes a HUGE difference is making sure your mixture is fully blended if you don’t blend it enough the mixture ends up a weird consistency

[@FitFoodAE]

Yea for sure!

[@Squadfather]

Your vids have really helped. Appreciate it!

[@FitFoodAE]

Appreciate you!

[@Arr0wtic]

Don't press respin I had a creami and it broke got a new one stopped pressing respin and never saw a problem and make sure there is no icy mountain on top keep it very flat smooth and if your wondering what should you use instead of respin is first ice cream or lite ice cream and second spin sorbet it comes out super smooth! Np

[@elevee]

Why in the world would respin be harmful

[@FitFoodAE]

Hmmm idk about this one but I might try it

[@myaccount99006]

@@eleveethat's what I'm wondering! I use it all the time

[@danakowalski6448]

The biggest issue they see is it breaking from the mountain middle on top. Try placing it in freezer without the top for a few hours, then put the top on. Stops the mountain.

[@winniebananab]

Guar gum works better

[@FitFoodAE]

I need to try this

[@myaccount99006]

someone recommended tara gum before I bought mine so I got some and it's been successful

[@winniebananab]

@@myaccount99006 I've never heard of Tara Gum, does it work?

[@Snerdles]

Like Xanthan, be very sparing with the guar gum, it's very potent stuff. I didn't realize when I first got my creami and put a full teaspoon in... It came out sorta like frozen string marshmallows... It would stretch like stretchy pizza cheese. 1/8th of a teaspoon is much more appropriate for pint sized portions.

[@brianpsu9801]

yeah, Guar gum is better for things that are going to be frozen...although Xanthan is what Starbucks uses to stabilize frappuccinos and keep them from separating as they sit

[@valerienewby1359]

The left over ice cream we put back into the freezer and serve later do not re-stir

[@aquagamer1212]

You can re-stir, just hit the actual ice cream button instead of the re-spin button.

[@FitFoodAE]

@aquagamer1212 trying this

[@myaccount99006]

I've heard so many differing opinions and urban legends of what to do or not do with this machine - I read you should not put the container in hot water because it will cause the entire contents to spin/rotate instead of allowing the machine to shave it down

[@kenaitchison3259]

The notches in the bottom of container will keep it from spinning. Just don't get the 30 seconds of hot water run on the bottom.

[@0oYCRo0]

​@@kenaitchison3259It's not the container that spins. It's the contents of it

[@kathrynburlingame5357]

So how do I measure 5 g of sugar free pudding mix without a scale? Is it 1 T? Same for the xantham gum, how much is 2 g, 1/8 t?

[@angievanwort4578]

Rum and raisin would be great

[@Krissi_Avocado]

I made a rum and raisin one. Sooooo good!

[@felishea8211]

Have you done a butter pecan 🤔🙂

[@julietfunt6384]

Hey I don't understand. All of the KZbin ninja people like you show the pint very full to the top, but when I make ice cream and stick to the fill line, the pint has a huge hole in the middle and most of the ice cream around the sides. So it turns out to be much less than a complete pint up to the top. How do you make that happen? Are you combining more than 1 pint for the video?

[@FitFoodAE]

No I’m not combining more than one pint, I just mixed the ice cream around a bit and it looked like that

[@tarahspencernelson2844]

My pint containers have done the same thing. I wonder why they warp like that. Maybe the dishwasher??

[@FitFoodAE]

Yea maybe 😢

[@audreythevenoud9856]

Thanks for this vidéo 😊

[@FitFoodAE]

❤️🫶

[@blkbrn1952]

One more question, after reading the comments about what to do if you only eat half of the pint of ice cream. Do you have to make an entire pint, could you just make half a pint?

[@aayesha2o13]

I used to make a full pint and then eat half and respin but now I just split my mixture into two pints so I don't have to scoop it and do the extra work to figure out where the halfway point is etc

[@blkbrn1952]

@@aayesha2o13 good to know. I have several pints so that would be no problem. Most of the time it is only my husband and myself, we like different flavors so an entire pint would not be eaten at one time.

[@blkbrn1952]

Would powdered sugar work as well as granulated sugar in these recipes?

[@Snerdles]

Any sugar or sweetener that dissolves on liquids should be fine. Since you mix it first, before freezing, just regular granulated sugar works just fine though, you can't notice any granules since it's dissolved before freezing anyway.

[@km55111]

when you make ice cream and freeze it again - do you have to run it through the creami every time after?

[@km55111]

ah crap u answered it in tip 7 actually lol

[@ashleywilliams9537]

Mint chocolate chip

[@conniel.4601]

Mint chocolate chip please thanks.

[@FitFoodAE]

Ahhh I don’t really like that flavour haha

[@josephroa4475]

You can take a plain vanilla base and get LorAnn Mint Chocolate Chip flavor fountain and it is delicious.

[@samanthaedwards3742]

This is very helpful tysm! Xx

[@FitFoodAE]

Of course ❤️

[@ElaineKronhaus]

Passion fruit please

[@FitFoodAE]

Good idea

[@montrose5paulina]

Peanut butter cheesecake, please.

[@FitFoodAE]

Ouu that sounds cool

[@merlin-ju6fu]

Another KZbin creator suggests tara gum over xantham gum.

[@FitFoodAE]

Oh I’ve never heard of that haha

[@mando1420]

out of topic but you have really nice prominent cheekbones, anywho thanks for the video! ❤

[@glennk9409]

I freeze mine for 6 hrs and comes out nice and creamy. I have 0 patience to wait 24 hrs.

[@AbdulRehman-hm5do]

Uuugh I'm giving my ninja creami a full viniger bath as we speak. This is after making sure it's clean every time. Idk what else I can do to make sure it's fully clean everytime

[@FitFoodAE]

Oh shit I never clean mine like that haha
