Ingredients
-
1 cup frozen strawberries (fresh works too; see notes)

Favorite Spiced Sprinkles — Rose Petal is our go-to
Directions
Ninja Creami Method:
Blend the base: Add strawberries, protein powder, cashew milk, vanilla bean powder, sea salt, and honey to a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth.
Freeze: Pour into a Ninja Creami pint container. Freeze overnight (12–24 hours) on a level surface.
Creamify: Process on Fruit Whip (or Sorbet / Lite Ice Cream depending on your model). Scrape down the sides if needed and respin once for ultra-creamy texture.
Serve: Process as soft serve.
Finish: Shower with Rose Petal Spiced Sprinkles and enjoy.
Recipe Note
Prep time will vary with chosen method.
ALTERNATIVE METHODS
Blender Soft Serve (right now):
Use frozen strawberries and reduce the milk to ¾ cup for a thicker texture.
Blend, stopping to tamp down as needed, until scoopable.
Enjoy immediately with Spiced Sprinkles.
Food Processor Sorbet:
Pulse frozen strawberries with the dry ingredients first.
Stream in the milk + honey until it turns into a soft, creamy “nice cream.”
Scoop and sprinkle.
NOTES & SWAPS
Fresh berries?: Hull and freeze on a sheet pan for 2–3 hours before blending, or add a handful of ice and use the Blender method.
Sweetness: Protein powders vary—taste the base and add more honey if you like.
Dairy-free: Use coconut milk for a richer, dairy-free version.
Protein boost: Add ½ scoop extra protein and 1–2 tablespoons more milk to balance thickness.
Make-ahead: The Creami base keeps in the freezer for up to 2 weeks; respin before serving.
