How do you use the Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker?
The Ninja Creami comes with Ninja Creami pint containers, these are the perfect size for any type of frozen treat that you plan to make.
I highly suggest ordering extra pint containers. You will likely need them due to the process of making each product.
The important thing to remember is that first you will prepare the base of your frozen treat in the pint container, then the whole pint will be placed on a level surface in the freezer for a full 24 hours. After 24 hours, it will then be time to use your Ninja Creami Machine to process your frozen treat.
When preparing the pint, be sure to use a spoon to stir up the ingredients in your pint and make sure that you get the bottom of the pint well, sometimes ingredients can get stuck in the grooves of the pint.
The pint will need to be filled to the max fill line; however, remember if you are following a recipe to carefully follow it as each recipe will have different steps.
After 24 hours it’s time to use the Ninja Creami to make your own ice cream or other frozen concoction.
The pint container will be placed into the bowl assembly that comes with the Ninja Creami, it’s an outer bowl with an outer bowl lid that has the mixer attached. This will be secured onto the machine and then you will select the appropriate function for the product you are making.
When using the machine, remember that you need to press the button and move the handle right to release your blender assembly from the machine.
For more assembly questions, be sure to refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for your machine. There are a few different models now.
What happens when your Ninja Creami Ice Cream is crumbly?
Lastly, the MOST IMPORTANT tip I’ve discovered over using ours is that sometimes when you first spin it in your machine, it will come out crumbly and not at all like the consistency of ice cream.
If this happens, add 1-2 Tbsp of milk to the mixture and then blend it again on the ICE CREAM function.
Then, open that lid and you will find the perfect consistency of ice cream. Remember to also stir up the bottom of the pint, sometimes ingredients get stuck in the crevices of the pint, so be sure to stir it up well.
Ninja Creami ice cream comes out of the machine similar to a soft serve depending on the amount of spins that you use.
What is a base recipe for the Ninja Creami?
At this point, there are a variety of different combinations that can be made with the Ninja Creami; however, this is the base vanilla recipe that we use and add mix-ins to regularly.
- Ninja Creami Vanilla Ice Cream (Base Recipe) – 2 tablespoons of Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix, 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract, 1/2 cup heavy cream, and regular milk to the max fill line.
This simple recipe is prepared and then placed into the pint container on a level surface in the freezer for 24 hours. After 24 hours, we proceed with using the ice cream button to churn the ice cream.
After this, we use the mix-in function along with a variety of different mix-ins such as Oreos, M&Ms, Butterfingers, or Strawberries to give it a great boost of flavor. This can be done by pressing the mix-in button on your machine.
Benefits of using the Ninja Creami Ice Cream Machine:
One of the biggest benefits is that if you have dietary restrictions, this can be used easily to make a variety of desserts using various ingredients such as oat milk, almond milk, or coconut milk.
Other recipes can be done too with low sugar or other substitutes to make them fit your specific needs.
We find the best part of the machine is each family member can make a pint with their favorite flavors. It’s a great way to make individual pints of ice cream as opposed to traditional churned ice cream recipes that tend to make a gallon or more of ice cream.
Now it’s time to enjoy some of the best Ninja Creami Ice Cream Recipes along with many other Ninja Creami Recipes with this huge list. Each recipe will take you to the website with more information and details from that author. I will continue to add more to the list too.
Enjoy learning to use your Ninja Creami!

Amazing, Would love to try these but then I will have to buy another appliance, and with my limited space that’s not an option.
Enjoy whatever you make in this nifty new machine.
