Smooth and tangy Ninja Creami frozen yogurt made with Greek yogurt, milk, vanilla, and a touch of natural sweetness. Enjoy it plain or customize each pint with fruit, chocolate, cookies, or other favorite mix-ins.

Ingredients

  • Plain Greek yogurt
  • Whole milk
  • Honey or maple syrup
  • Vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Fresh fruit, optional
  • Crushed cookies, optional
  • Mini chocolate chips, optional

Instructions

  1. Place the Greek yogurt, whole milk, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt in a mixing bowl.
  2. Whisk until the mixture is completely smooth and evenly combined.
  3. Taste the yogurt base and adjust the sweetness if needed. The unfrozen mixture can taste slightly sweeter than desired because freezing reduces the perception of sweetness.
  4. Pour the mixture into a compatible Ninja Creami pint container, keeping it below the maximum fill line.
  5. Smooth the surface, cover the container, and place it level in the freezer.
  6. Freeze according to the instructions for your specific Ninja Creami model, generally about 24 hours or until completely solid.
  7. Place the frozen pint into the Ninja Creami according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  8. Process using the Frozen Yogurt setting if available. Otherwise, use the program recommended by the manufacturer for this type of frozen base.
  9. If the frozen yogurt appears crumbly or powdery, follow the instructions for your model and use Re-Spin as needed until smooth and creamy.
  10. For optional mix-ins, make a small opening in the processed frozen yogurt and add fresh fruit, mini chocolate chips, or crushed cookies.
  11. Use the Mix-In program according to the instructions for your machine.
  12. Serve immediately for the softest and creamiest consistency.

Notes

  • Greek yogurt works particularly well because its thick consistency creates a creamy frozen base.
  • Taste the mixture before freezing and adjust the honey or maple syrup as needed.
  • For strawberry, blueberry, or peach frozen yogurt, blend fruit into the yogurt base before freezing or add small pieces with the Mix-In program after processing.
  • For chocolate frozen yogurt, whisk unsweetened cocoa powder into the base and adjust the sweetener to taste.
  • Flavored yogurt can replace plain yogurt, but reduce additional sweetener and vanilla as needed.
  • Freeze the pint level and completely solid according to the instructions for your specific Ninja Creami model.
  • Store leftovers covered in the Creami pint and smooth the surface before refreezing.
  • Follow the manufacturer’s reprocessing instructions to restore the creamy texture of refrozen leftovers.
  • Keep fresh fruit and crunchy toppings separate during storage and add them after processing for the best texture.
