  • Freeze the mixture flat to ensure an even, level surface for optimal Creami spinning.
  • Re-spin if crumbly by adding 1–2 tablespoons of oat milk until the texture is creamy.
  • Customize with mix-ins like chopped strawberries, graham crackers, or dairy-free chocolate chips for added flavor and texture after the first spin.

Ninja Creami Dairy Free Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe Faqs

What if my ice cream turns out crumbly? No problem! Just add 1–2 tablespoons of oat milk and use the “Re-Spin” function until smooth and creamy.

Do I have to use coconut cream? Coconut cream gives it a rich, creamy texture, but you can substitute with another thick non-dairy cream if preferred.
